Parandur Farmers Plan to Rename Ekanapuram Main Road After CM Vijay

Parandur farmers met Chief Minister Vijay following the government’s decision to drop the proposed airport project in the region. The farmers expressed their gratitude to the Chief Minister, saying the decision had brought significant relief to families who had been worried about losing their agricultural land and homes. The proposed Parandur airport had remained a major concern for local farming communities, who had been voicing their opposition to the project over the years.

As a gesture of appreciation, the farmers are planning to rename Ekanapuram Main Road as S. Joseph Vijay Road in honour of the Chief Minister. They said the proposed renaming would serve as a lasting tribute to his decision to protect their agricultural lands and livelihoods. For the farming community, the meeting with the Chief Minister marked an important moment after years of uncertainty surrounding the airport proposal.
