Bihar CM Nitish Kumar reviews Darbhanga airport development, assures more amenities soon
The number of flights from Darbhanga airport would be increased and more passenger amenities would be provided soon, chief minister Nitish Kumar announced.
A presentation was made before the CM on the development of Darbhanga airport. Nitish said the airport would be named after the legendary Maithili poet Vidyapati and a resolution to this effect has been unanimously passed by the state assembly.
The CM said the airport whose foundation was laid in 2018 has come as a boon for the Mithilanchal region and other parts of Bihar neighbouring areas. He asked officials to hold talks with the officials of the Authority of India (AAI) and the Indian Air Force (IAF) to develop the Darbhanga airport because it was important for the people of north Bihar and adjoining areas.
