The Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh Government have sent proposals to the Union
Government for setting up of new greenfield airports at Dholera, Gujarat, and
Jewar/Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, respectively.
As part of the Early Bird Projects under Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC),
prepared in consultation with respective state governments, it was envisaged to
develop an international airport between Ahmedabad and Dholera in Gujarat; an
aerotropolis near Jaipur in Rajasthan; and an international airport in Uttar
Pradesh.
Until now, the Union Government has given in-principle approval for setting
up of an airport at Viratnagar, Jaipur to Rajasthan Aviation Infrastructure
(India).
