As the Minister for Civil Aviation reviewed the growth of airport infrastructure in India and called for preparation of a holistic Vision - 2040
Book a Stall Know MoreThe Minister of State for Civil Aviation, said in a recent interview that “India should have 150 to 200 airports in the next 15 to 20 years” at an estimated cost of Rs: 4 lakh crore. Among them, 70 airports will be at new locations while the rest will be second airports or expansion of existing airfields to handle commercial flights. The rest will come as the second airports that are intended to deal with the sudden growth in demand for air travel which threatens to overwhelm the present infrastructure.
India owns some state-of-the-art airports and more are on their way to boost the air connectivity between cities and ease congestion in existing airports. These airports will be developed under the Regional Air Connectivity Scheme (also known as the UDAN Scheme) which aims at facilitating regional connectivity through financial support and infrastructure development. As many as 18 new airports in the country will be developed under this scheme. These include Mopa in Goa, Navi Mumbai, Shirdi and Sindhudurg in Maharashtra, Bijapur, Gulbarga, Hasan and Shimoga in Karnataka, Kannur in Kerala, Pakyong in Sikkim, Karaikal in Puducherry, Dholera in Gujarat and Bhogapuram in Andhra Pradesh.
The Airports Authority of India (AAI) has chalked out a plan to invest about 19,000 crore in upgrading airport infrastructure in the country, especially in smaller cities, in the next three years. The Airports Authority of India (AAI) are not making investments in just smaller airports but also airports like those in Kolkata and Chennai. While work on upgrade at many airports has begun, work at some of the others will begin soon, the investment is being made in improving runway capacity as well as building terminal capacity.
Hence to support the Indian Aviation Sector after successfully hosting Three Annuals of the Airport Modernization Summit we will now be hosting the 4th Annual on the 29th & 30th April 2021. This Summit is a Two - Day educational and business exchange platform designed to connect regional and international project stakeholders.

The Airport Modernization Summit held in Bangalore was an impressive event that featured Key government officials, airport ecosystem stakeholders and many known stalwarts from the industry. We enjoyed the two days of spirited discussion on where the Aviation and Airports industry is moving as a whole and what the airports of the future will look like. We eagerly look forward to the next edition of the event where we wish to evolve the discussions to the next level while showcasing the best in class technologies that NEC has to offer.

Thank you for hosting a wonderful conference and the excellent management of what turned out to be I am sure a successful and highly stimulating conference. Organizing such a conference surely requires enormous amounts of time and energy for everything to fall into place. Participating in the conference was a wonderful experience and gave a lot of knowledge relating to the making of modern airports. There were interesting talks and the speakers were outstanding who spoke at length providing in-depth knowledge of their products and experience as well Your entire team worked tirelessly and efficiently to keep the event flow. Thanks again for your wonderful hospitality and I hope you continue the series and I wish you all the best for the future.
