Greenfield airport hopes revive in Bhagalpur

With the Purnia airport inauguration on the horizon, Bhagalpur’s hopes for a greenfield airport under the RCS-UDAN scheme are reignited after 42 years. Land in Sultanganj and Goradih is under consideration with feasibility studies underway by the AAI and local administration. The establishment of a new airport would serve Bhagalpur and adjoining districts, providing passenger and cargo connectivity.
