thehindu.com

The land acquisition survey for the Mamnoor airport expansion has been completed. The government plans to acquire 220.27 acres in Gadipally and Nakkalapally, following a preliminary notification issued in December 2024. Compensation negotiations are ongoing, with estimates ranging from ₹80 lakh to ₹1.20 crore per acre. Initial demands from villagers were much higher at ₹4 crore per acre, but discussions have lowered this figure. The Airports Authority of India currently holds 696.14 acres for the existing airport. An additional 280 acres is needed for new infrastructure, prompting the government to explore options for acquiring more land.
