Modi makes ‘farm outreach’ with Jewar airport project -Virendra Singh Rawat

Even as Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation of the Rs 30,000-crore Jewar International Airport in Uttar Pradesh (UP) today, he made a subtle outreach to the farmers too in the wake of protests over the three central farm laws.

Last week, Modi announced to repeal the contentious laws and on November 24, the Union Cabinet approved his proposal. A bill will be tabled in the winter session of Parliament next week.

However, the agitating farmers have dug in their heels and refused to call off their protests, seeking urgent talks with the government and the fulfillment of other demands, including a legal guarantee to the minimum support price (MSP) template.

In his address at the airport ground-breaking ceremony in Greater Noida, Gautam Buddha Nagar district, the Prime Minister said the project would benefit all sections of society, including the farmers. “The airport will boost exports of handicraft, industrial and agricultural produce, and help small farmers in the shipment of fruits, vegetables and fish, which are highly perishable commodities.”

The first phase of the Jewar project, which is estimated to handle 12.5 million passengers annually, is expected to be ready in 34 months or by 2024. Modi said the airport would play a major role in the development of the Indian aviation sector and spur progress in other sectors too.

He alleged the previous governments merely acquired the land of farmers and conducted token foundation ceremonies without any political will or a road map to complete the projects.

“Earlier, the agricultural land was taken but the projects got stuck indefinitely over land compensation issues, thus causing prolonged delays. However, we have acquired land with utmost transparency in the larger interest of farmers and the nation,” he noted, adding a provision to impose a penalty has been added if the developers fail to meet the project deadlines.
