Mandasa:The affected farmers and villagers have clarified that it is untrue that the farmers of the village of Bethalpuram have come forward to give land to Uddana Cargo Airport as per the information that appeared in some news papers two days ago.

Collector Swapnikal Dinakar Pundkar, MLA Gauthu Sirisha, Union Minister Rammohan Naidu and other officials and government leaders have clearly conveyed their stand. If there is government or assigned land anywhere away from the villages, such structures should be made there. He asked to avoid such false campaigns and to consider the opinions of farmers.
