New Delhi: The government will look at building the Greater Noida airport to ease the infrastructure pressure on the Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport, the newly appointed minister of state for civil aviation said on Wednesday.
“We will look at the technical aspects of the Greater Noida airport, as it will ease the over—stretched infrastructure pressure on the IGI Airport here. A big metropolitan area like Delhi should have two airports to ease the pressure on the existing infrastructure,” Mahesh Sharma, minister of state for civil aviation and tourism, said.
Sharma, who is the member of parliament from Gautam Budh Nagar for BJP, took charge here at the ministry of civil aviation at its headquarters at the Rajiv Gandhi Bhavan.
The 55-year-old is a trained doctor and national convener of the medical cell of the BJP. He is also the chairman of Kailash Group of Hospitals.
