Another brick in the wall for Mohali airport

Chandigarh: Authorities are now building the boundary wall for proposed international airport at Mohali, which would surround an area of 306 acre near Churheri village of Mohali district. It would be completed in five to six months.
The development will give a separate identity to the local airport, which has been under control of Indian Air Force since its inception. The domestic terminal located at Chandigarh, which is going through a major overhaul, would be connected with the new one. Earlier, the construction was expected to start in January, but could not take off because of non-completion of land acquisition-related formalities. Abhay Chandra, incharge of construction, said other work would also start soon and international terminal would be built in two years.
Meanwhile, work at the domestic terminal of the local airport is expected to finish by July end.
