PARANDUR AIRPORT ✈️
Why is it needed for Chennai?? A long read! Share Max.
Firstly people who’s lands are being acquired for #Parandur Airport are being given :
🔹 3-4 times the market value of the land
🔹Alternate housing is being given to them just next to the project site . Tenders are already out for it
🔹Govt jobs are being promised to the people
➡️Now political parties should push the govt to make sure these benefits reach the people which they truly deserve rather than telling to completely drop the project!
➡️Chennai badly needs a new airport! The existing one at Meenambakkam has planned max capacity of 35 MPA and it’s the smallest in terms of area among all airports. Nearby Bengaluru (70MPA) or Hyderabad (70MPA) have bigger capacities. Mumbai & Delhi are building 2nd airports too. Bengaluru is going for 3rd airport
➡️One can’t acquire land at the existing airport. Getting land from OTA is close to impossible and cost of acquiring land at nearby Gerugambakkam is costlier than that at Parandur.
➡️ Existing one has a river too flowing through it and its layout has always been an issue given its narrow access via GST Rd. Cargo terminal is small as well and we have been losing to Bengaluru/Hyderabad in terms of Logistics ecosystem
➡️Airport is just not about the rich people flying. Reports suggest that more Indians will fly in the next 10 yrs. Indian Airlines have 1,000+ planes or order and we need airports to cater to them! Parandur with a full fledged airport will supports Logistics+ Warehousing ecosystem, Hotels, MRO etc providing jobs for Lakhs!
➡️4-5 sites were studied for a 2nd airport for Chennai & Parandur was found the best considering various factors! It’s literally impossible for find 4,000+ acres around Chennai without a water body or agri land!
➡️ Lastly the water bodies there at Parandur are man made lakes! The govt has setup a commission & studied its impact! New artificial lakes will be built with diversion water channel to prevent flooding! Any infra project will have its consequences! Mettur Dam was built submerging several villages. Today it’s the lifeline to several TN’s District!!
Plz support the project! It’s need of the hour! TN and Chennai deserves a world class airport. Plz keep politics away 🙏🙏
Does Coimbatore really not deserve a Metro? Let's look at the data.
📊 Coimbatore–Tiruppur is estimated to be among India's top 10 metropolitan economies, ahead of cities such as Nagpur, Jaipur, Kochi, Lucknow, Agra and Kanpur.
👥 Coimbatore Urban Agglomeration had a population of 21.4 lakh (2011 Census).
🏭 Coimbatore is one of India's largest manufacturing ecosystems, with over 25,000 industries spanning textiles, engineering, pumps, motors, foundries, machine tools, auto components and precision manufacturing. It is also Tamil Nadu's second-largest IT destination after Chennai and a major hub for education and healthcare.
Yet cities with significantly smaller economies have operational metro systems, while Coimbatore continues to wait.
Interestingly, India already has metro systems in several Tier-2 cities such as Kochi, Nagpur, Jaipur, Kanpur, Lucknow and Agra, demonstrating that urban mobility decisions are not based on a single metric alone.
Metro rail is not a reward after a city becomes congested—it is infrastructure that enables the next phase of growth.
If one of India's leading manufacturing and metropolitan economies is repeatedly told it doesn't qualify, then the question is no longer whether Coimbatore deserves a metro. The question is whether the current approval framework adequately reflects a city's economic importance, regional influence and future mobility needs.
Cities grow because of infrastructure—not the other way around.

💸 Let citizens pay the bill.
