The airport’s location was finalised in late 2016 by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis. Named the Chhatrapati Sambhaji Raje International Airport, it was handed over to the state-run Maharashtra Airport Development Company (MADC) who has not been able to take it forward for want of clearance from the Ministry of Defence.
However, Managing Director of the MADC Suresh Kakani said that the company had not got any word of the clearance yet.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
