IAF to transfer 278 hectares to AAI
New Delhi: The government Wednesday approved transfer of 278 hectares of land bank in possession with the Indian Air Force to the Airports Authority of India (AAI) for the development of Nagpur airport.
The land transfer was made possible after the state government decided to give 400 hectares to the IAF on a barter basis.
“This (exchange) has been found appropriate by IAF as additional land for extension of runway is required for its Gajraj project,” an official statement said after a meeting of the union cabinet here which took the decision in this respect.
The statement said the 278 hectares of land in possession with IAF restricted development of the Gajraj project, as it was located in five different pockets.
“IAF needed a single plot of land for expansion of the runway and development of Gajraj project. At the same time, the IAF land falling in the Mihan (Nagpur) airport boundary is required for the development of the Mihan project,” the statement further said.
An additional land bank of 122 hectares has been offered by the state government to IAF to meet the cost of existing assets which cannot be relocated.
The RG Marathon Championship Run 2023 in Goa was a testament to inclusivity. Initially resistant to including persons with disabilities, it eventually featured wheelchair and standing categories, thanks to advocates’ efforts. Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.
Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.
The lunch featured esteemed guests including the Tourism Minister of Goa, MLA Rohan Khaunte of Porvorim, Social Welfare Minister Subhash Phal Desai, and the State Commissioner for Persons with Disability in Goa, Guruprasad Pawaskar. The event was impeccably hosted by Ms. Falak Fatima and Mr. Adarsh Parashar, offering activities such as Karaoke and Billiards. The youth of Goa exhibited their unwavering support for the community, making the party an unequivocal success.
