Why did Vijay scrap Chennai's second airport plan at Parandur?

Описание: Tamil Nadu Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay has scrapped the proposed greenfield airport at Parandur. The decision marks a dramatic reversal from the plans set in motion under the previous DMK government, which wanted to ease pressure on Chennai's increasingly crowded Meenambakkam airport.
