New Delhi: In what may bring cheers to millions of people living in the NCR region a senior government executive has told news agency PTI that the first flight is expected to take off by December 2023 or January 2024.
Noida International Airport Limited (NIAL) CEO Arun Vir Singh told PTI that work on the upcoming Noida International Airport is progressing as scheduled, adding that the resettlement and rehabilitation of over 3,000 families who are getting displaced due to the mega greenfield project is likely to be completed by May 2021.
The project was then sidelined during the SP regime, which began pressing for an international airport in Agra so as to build a connectivity with its dream project, Lucknow-Agra Expressway.
The project was revived during the current BJP regime, and with the same party at the centre and the state, things could move way faster. The site clearance for the airport came in 2017. Over the past three years, various clearances, including security, environment, bidder, etc followed. It is Zurich Airport International AG that won the bid for developing the airport in December last year. The airport is expected to share the load of the IGI Airport in Delhi.
