Amausi's got terminal illness

Lucknow: When Union civil aviation minister Ajit Singh announced international status for Lucknow airport while inaugurating its new terminal building in May, little could he have imagined that the vital installation renamed after his father and former prime minister, Chaudhary Charan Singh, would turn out to be a damp, shabby place in just two months.
Delayed by over three years and having faced a CBI enquiry into alleged anomalies in its construction and use of sub-standard material, the new terminal building, constructed at an estimated cost of nearly Rs 120 crore, is yet to meet the expectation of the visitors. TOI visited the terminal and spoke to some passengers to ascertain the follies that have actually dented the image of the much-touted gateway to Lucknow.
