Tender for civilian operations from air base, land nod sought

Ghaziabad: The Airports Authority of India (AAI) has floated a tender for building civic infrastructure at Hindon Air Force station under the regional connecvtivity scheme. A contractor will be selected through the tender to carry out the infrastructure work at the proposed civilian airport terminal at the base, officials said.
Meanwhile, the Ghaziabad administration has sent a report to the state government seeking an approval to procure land from the state housing board and farmers, following which an MoU will be signed expectedly in one week’s time.
“The lease rent draft have been prepared and it has been sent to the AAI for the approval. We hope that very soon MoUs will be signed with the farmers and also with the housing board which also owns a piece of land that would be required for developing the civil infrastructure,” said the district magistrate, Ritu Maheshwari.
Maheshwari, who was recently in Lucknow, said that a report on the revised lease rate has been submitted to the state government. It may be noted that the district administration is having a difficult time convincing some 43 farmers who jointly own 36,000 sq m of land in Sikandarpur village which is earmarked for developing the civic infrastructure for the domestic flight operations under RCS from Hindon Air Force station.
