Greater Noida: The rehabilitation of all displaced families, without which work on the first phase of the Noida airport project cannot start, is expected to be completed by July 15.
On Wednesday, Meerut divisional commissioner Surendra Singh visited the six villages where the proposed Jewar airport will come up, to monitor the progress of the rehabilitation process. Nearly 600 of the over 3,000 families have partially been moved from their homes, out of which a majority of the families are from Nagla Ganeshi, Nagla Phoolkan and Dayanatpur Khera villages.
In the first phase, officials have to get all the six villages vacated to organise the foundation stone laying ceremony for the Noida International Airport project. Meanwhile, villagers have said they are not being given time to complete the construction of their houses in Jewar Bangar township and are instead being asked to shift immediately.
The first phase of Noida International Airport will be a little bigger than the original plan. Instead of 1,334 hectares, the airport will now be developed over 1,350 hectares, with the additional 16 hectares to be utilised for building a maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) centre. The additional land is being acquired in Kureb village, directly from farmers, officials said.
