Sabarimala airport project returns to spotlight amid legal uncertainty
The proposed Sabarimala Greenfield Airport project in Kerala faces renewed political pressure for revival despite ongoing legal disputes over land acquisition. The state government is currently reviewing the project's feasibility and legal standing regarding the Cheruvally Estate.
