Centre Approves Warangal Airport Project; Development Depends on Clearances and Land Acquisition
The Centre has granted in-principle approval for the development of Warangal Airport at an estimated cost of around Rs 497 crore, with tenders floated by the Airports Authority of India for key infrastructure. Completion depends on factors like land acquisition, clearances, and financial closure, with no fixed timeline for operations. The Telangana government has also proposed airports at Adilabad, Peddapalli, and Bhadradri Kothagudem, though some sites were found unsuitable. Under the UDAN scheme, 56-58 regional air routes are operational in Telangana.
