New Delhi: Four months after 12 hotels of Aerocity — a hospitality project near the Indira Gandhi International Airport that is awaiting clearance from the Ministry of Civil Aviation — submitted their security plans to the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS), airport sources said that JW Marriott was given a security clearance with a few recommendations before opening for service.
The final decision for the clearance of the project will be taken at the Cabinet Secretariat meeting to be held later this week.
Aerocity, a 43-acre project, was initiated six years ago by the Central government. The project was to be ready before the 2010 Commonwealth Games.
However, the Delhi Police first raised an objection to the construction of the project after glaring security issues were identified, including the project's proximity to the runway. Other security agencies also raised an objection, saying that the project was a security threat to the runway.
