Air services set for revival in Bhagalpur after four decades

Bhagalpur’s long-standing dream of air services is nearing reality with the state cabinet approving Rs 472 crore for acquiring 931 acres in Sultanganj for a greenfield airport. This step fulfills a 42-year-old demand, leveraging Sultanganj’s strategic location and pilgrim traffic. The project is expected to drive multidimensional growth and improve regional connectivity.
