Ahmedabad: With scores of VVIPs scheduled to arrive in the city for the Vibrant Summit, to be held from January 18-20, 100 private jets are expected to land at Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International (SVPI) airport, said state government sources.
Private aircraft carrying ministers and national and international business delegates, among others, will land at the city airport from Thursday, January 17, a day prior to the summit. State government sources confirmed that some heads of states and industrialists and ministers from several countries will attend the summit.
