Work to establish a domestic airport at Thanjavur is under way, said S. Murasoli, the constituency’s MP, on Sunday. He confirmed that Rs 38 crore has been allotted for acquiring 172 acres of land for approach roads and related work, and stressed that the scheme has not been dropped. The state government is also handling land acquisition for the Pattukottai-Thanjavur railway line, which is expected to be completed in one year, with the railways releasing the funds. Additionally, steps have been taken to build a foot overbridge near the Big Temple to ease traffic congestion.
