Mysore airport to open on May 15

Chief Minister B.S. Yeddyurappa on Wednesday announced that the newly build airport in Mysore and new airport terminal at Mangalore will be inaugurated on May 15. Mr Yeddyurappa said that civil aviation minister Praful Patel had a discussion with him and agreed to inaugurate the airport and new terminal on May 15. The Chief Minister also announced that the state government would start the construction of airports in Shimoga and Gulbarga district in a month under a Public-Private- Partnership (PPP).

“We had a meeting with the civil aviation secretary to discuss the launch of airline operations from Belgaum and Bidar districts,” he said. The government has decided to adopt the PPP model to beautify dam sites such as Bhadra, Kabini, Hidkal, Markandeya and Narayanpura. “These sites will be developed and promoted as centers of tourist attraction during the Global Investors Meet(GIM) which is slated to begin on June 3.

We have already achieved a lot of success in developing Almatti dam on these lines,” he explained. Replying to a question on land encroachment in and around Bengaluru, Mr. Yeddyurappa said he was planning spot visits on encroached properties so that the recovery process is expedited. “I know for sure that there is a section of ‘influential’ people who are responsible for land grab in and around the city. I therefore need to visit these properties to make the recovery faster,” he explained.
