Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath visited the Noida International Airport in Jewar on Sunday to oversee preparations for its inauguration by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, scheduled for March 28. During the visit, Adityanath inspected the site, reviewed security arrangements, and examined key infrastructure components including the passenger terminal, cargo terminal, rally venue, parking areas, access routes, and helipad. Officials confirmed that a four-layer security system will be implemented for the event. The PM’s inauguration will also include the launch of the cargo terminal and the laying of the foundation stone for a Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) project. Adityanath convened a review meeting with public representatives and senior officials to discuss operational plans, security protocols, and coordination among departments to ensure all work is completed by the deadline. Present at the airport were several senior officials, including Minister-in-charge Gautam Buddha Nagar Brijesh Singh, BJP regional president Satyendra Sisodia, and other party leaders. The airport, located approximately 85 kilometers from Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport, is designed to serve as a major passenger and cargo hub. Phase 1 of the project includes a single runway with an annual passenger capacity of 1.2 crore, alongside daily operations for around 150 flights. Officials highlighted that approximately Rs 5,000 crore has been allocated for land acquisition, while Rs 7,000 crore is being invested in construction. A government official noted that the second runway will be initiated once annual passenger numbers exceed 1 crore, enabling the airport to handle up to 7 crore passengers annually.#uttar_pradesh #yogi_adityanath #narendra_modi #noida_international_airport #gautam_buddha_nagar
