The issues related to land acquisition for extending the runway at Kannur International Airport to 4,000 metres have become complex for several reasons, Chief Minister V.D. Satheesan informed the Assembly on Thursday.

The government had issued administrative sanction on December 27, 2016, to acquire 99.92 hectares for extending the runway from 3,050 metres to 4,000 metres. Though the land acquisition notification was issued in 2017, the process is yet to begin.
