Summary:

Lucknow, Dec 3 (PTI) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Friday claimed that farmers willingly gave their land for the Noida international airport in Bhatta Parsaul, which was once in the limelight for violent clashes over land acquisition.

The CM also claimed that his government did not let the development work stop despite the coronavirus pandemic while he accused previous governments of neglecting it.

Despite odds, the Purvanchal Expressway is now ready and operational while the Bundelkhand Expressway will be operational by December, the CM added.

"The foundation stone of the Jewar airport, Asia"s largest, in Noida was laid by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on November 25.

Farmers of Bhatta Parsaul happily gave their land after our government was formed, that too only on twice the compensation," he said at the PM Gati Shakti North Zone Conference here.

Adityanath said if intentions are pure and clear, every big problem can be solved.
