State govt to buy land for airport expansion

Government of Nagaland is planning to buy land from Aoyimti Village for the expansion of Dimapur Airport. Expansion of the airport is necessary for Airports Authority of India (AAI) to meet international norms that would enable the authority to retain the license for Dimapur Airport. Dimapur airport does not have a landing facility for big aircrafts, which is a requisite for AAI as per the international aviation norms.Contact: Airports Authority of India.Tel: 011-2463 2950.Website: www.aai.aero
