Residents miffed at delay in Sulur IAF station expansion

Tirupur: The indefinite prolong in acquiring land for the proposed enlargement of the Indian Air Force (IAF) station at Sulur has unsettled the residents of the close by panchayats whose lands had been earmarked for the mission.
As they'd been restrained from selling their lands for the previous couple of years, they have been afraid to make any funding to develop the homes fearing that may move in useless. Now, they want the government to either execute the land acquisition on the earliest or revoke restrictions on selling the land.

To make bigger the 78-year-old IAF station at Sulur, round 500 acres land had been earmarked within the villages positioned round Kangayampalayam, which hosts the station. The mission was proposed close to 20 years ago.

“Land at Appanaickenpatti, Kalangal and Kadampadi panchayats in Coimbatore and Paruvai panchayat in Tirupur was proposed to be obtained for the mission. Even IAF had earmarked the land at these panchayats,” stated M Suresh Kumar, a farmer from Paruvai. He, on the other hand, lamented the uncertainty in regards to the land acquisition.

“It isn't identified when the government will gain the land. And it has affected the landowners as they can not sell their land without obtaining no objection certificates from the IAF. The government has stopped additional registration of lands,” stated Okay Sellamuthu, president, Uzhavar Uzhaipalar Katchi.


In a couple of circumstances, individuals who paid advances to shop for the land had withdrawn their plans within the remaining minute once they got here to understand concerning the restriction, Suresh Kumar stated. “If the government is planning to procure the land, we would like it to do it straight away that too at a charge four occasions upper than the government’s guideline value,” he added.


Recently, homeowners of the lands earmarked for the mission had held a meeting to discuss the following plan of action at Paruvai. “We have started a WhatApp team to discuss our plight,” stated R Shanmugam alias Jothi Basu of Paruvai.


Pointing out that the villagers have been afraid to make any funding to develop their homes as a result of the uncertainty regarding their land, Sellamuthu stated, “We will meet the state land administration commissioner to understand concerning the government’s standing. Then, we can chart out the following course of action.”
