Assam airports set for major facelift

Guwahati: Airports in Assam, including the Lokapriya Gopinath Bordoloi International (LGBI) airport, are all set for a major facelift with the government mooting measures to turn the state into an aviation hub of the entire North Eastern region. Chief minister Tarun Gogoi has taken up the matter with the Airport Authority of India (AAI) to explore ways to improve the airports which will further encourage the country's much vaunted Look East Policy aimed at connecting the South Eastern Asian neighbours, official sources said here today. The sources said the chairman of AAI V P Agarwal had a recent discussion with the chief minister on issues relating to development of the airports and construction of a new integrated terminal building and taxi track at LGBI to cope up with the heavy inflow of passengers.
