Agra: Agra is furious. If its business leaders are to be believed, an airport that citizens of the Taj city were lobbying for may now come up between Mathura and Aligarh districts.
The Uttar Pradesh government has reportedly initiated exercises to locate the proposed airport at a place called Baldev, according to official sources here.
"This is simply ridiculous and illogical. Agra will be 40 km from the airport," complained Rajiv Tiwari, president of the Federation of Travel Agents Association here, echoing the city's sentiments. Mathura legislator Pradeep Mathur Tuesday met Uttar Pradesh Chief Secretary Javed Usmani to submit proposals for the new airport at Baldev.
