Ayodhya airport: 107 families agree to relocate, admn allots alternate land

Lucknow: The long pending project of the Maryada Purushottam Sriram Airport in Ayodhya appears set to take off, as 107 families of two villages (where most of the land is to be acquired for the project) have agreed to relocate, according to the district administration.

The Ayodhya airport project was stuck due to opposition by locals of Dharampur Sahadat and Janaura villages, who were not willing to hand over their land to the state government .

But after 107 families of the two villages agreed to relocate, the administration allotted them alternate land within the limits of the Ayodhya Municipal Corporation.
