NEW DELHI:
The new facilities will come up in Goa, Patna, Prayagraj, Jodhpur, Hirasar (Rajkot), Satna, Datia and Thoothukudi.
"Prayagraj, Jodhpur and Patna's expansion will be completed by June 30 this year. Goa's Dabolim airport will have a new terminal building by March," a senior aviation ministry official said, asking not to be named. The official added that airports at Datia, Satna and Hirasar are almost ready for inauguration.
Former civil aviation minister Jyotiraditya Scindia had laid the foundation stone for Datia airport in August 2023. The airport will also serve people from nearby Jhansi.
The expansion comes as India's domestic air passenger traffic is expected to reach 300 million by 2030. According to the Economic Survey FY 2024, India has doubled its airports since 2014.
