Fake news on Mangaluru airport renamed after Koti-Chennaya goes viral, airport clarifies

Mangaluru: A message on WhatsApp that says 'Mangaluru's international airport is now named as Koti- Chennaya international airport' is going viral for the last few days.

However, airport officials clarified that the message is indeed a fake one.

"Some fake forwards are circulated in WhatsApp once again in connection to change of name of Mangaluru international airport. As per the fake news, Mangaluru international airport has been named as Koti-Chennaya international airport. The pranks still continue to circulate which really damages the image of the airport. Do not circulate the fake message." said an official.
A similar message was circulated earlier on Facebook by a page named 'Billawas Pride' requesting to rename the airport after Koti and Chennaya, two legendary heroes of Tulunadu.

It may be recalled that Billawa community members from the Dakshina Kannada district recently requested to rename the Mangaluru airport as 'Koti Chennaya airport'.
