Amreli Residents Campaign Against Aviation Academy Gains Support
Imagine a training school for pilots near your town.
Some people are worried about the planes flying around.
Sadly, a plane crashed near the town, which made people even more concerned.
Now, residents want the school to close or at least make sure planes don't fly over their houses.
They've already asked the government to do something.
The local leader also agrees and is trying to get the school's license taken away, because of safety issues.
Residents of Amreli, Gujarat, are campaigning against a local aviation academy.
The campaign gained momentum after an Ahmedabad plane crash on June 12.
The campaign began after a trainee pilot died in a crash on April 22.
Residents demand closure of the academy or restrict flights over residential areas.
Local MP supports the campaign and has urged the cancellation of the academy's license.
