Chandigarh: To scale up aviation infrastructure and develop existing civilian airfields, the Haryana government has invited global expression of interest for development of an integrated aviation hub in Hisar.
Disclosing this here today, an official spokesman said that the hub would be developed through private participation on Design, Build, Finance, Operate and Transfer (DBFOT) basis.
