Greens oppose move to revive Cheekkalloor airstrip project in Wayanad
Environmental groups in Kerala have protested the government's plan to restart the Cheekkalloor airstrip in Wayanad, arguing it would force the relocation of over a thousand households and eliminate roughly 500 acres of rice paddies. They also contend the development could jeopardize water supplies for the district and neighboring regions of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu.
