Legal challenge mounts against NAINA; villages file first writ petition in Bombay High Court to cancel project

Hindustan Times  

Navi Mumbai: Opposition to the state government’s Navi Mumbai International Airport Influence Notified Area project has taken a legal turn, with five villages under the Chipale Group Panchayat in Panvel filing a writ petition in the Bombay High Court seeking to quash the scheme. “We are not against development, but our demand is that land acquisition should either follow the provisions of the Land Acquisition Act of 2013 or our villages should be included in the Panvel Municipal Corporation, with all homes outside the original villages regularised.” The petition challenges the project’s implementation, alleging violations of the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act and the 73rd Amendment, which empowers Gram Panchayats. “Unlike other municipal areas where land was acquired with due compensation, here, the government has simply bypassed acquisition norms.” Project-Affected People leader Sudhakar Patil raised concerns that villagers’ homes could be declared encroachments and demolished. Industries Minister Uday Samant reaffirmed, “CIDCO will not proceed without taking Gram Panchayats, public representatives, and NAINA PAPs into confidence.” Shinde, in a written statement, clarified, “CIDCO will include PAP houses within the 40% land area allocated to them.
