Tawang MP writes to Patel about airport project

New Delhi: A Congress MP from Arunachal Pradesh today demanded that the government set up the green field airport at Tawang near the Indo-China border as planned by it.
In a letter to Civil Aviation Minister Praful Patel, MP from West Arunachal, Takam Sanjoy, said although the Airports Authority of India conducted a study and subsequently finalised a site, no further development was taking place to set up the airport.
Apprehending that the project may be shelved as it falls near the Indo-China border, Sanjoy requested the minister to revive the project as Tawang "is the most important tourist destination in the state."
