The long pending Amballoor Electronics Park project has taken a step forward as the land acquisition hurdle has been cleared.
The district administration has reached an understanding with landowners on the price of the parcels of land that will be acquired for the project. The project proposed nine years ago will spread over 100 acre to be acquired from the local residents.
The land is spread over the villages of Amballoor, Mulanthuruthy and Manakkunnam on both sides of the Konoth River. The electronics park venture, in its first proposal stage, was planned to be spread over 350 acre.
