Joginder Walia, president of Balh Bachao Sangharsh Samiti, said that the state government should not construct the proposed airport at Balh valley but at some other place in Mandi district.
The Chief Minister, during his recent two-day visit in Mandi, said that the state government was striving hard to get approval for the airport in Mandi, which would be constructed at Nagchala in Balh valley.
“The state government is planning to hand over Dharamsala airport to the private sector. We are apprehensive that after acquiring fertile land of Balh valley, the state government would entrust it to some industrialist.
