In a ceremony attended by senior ministers of the Union and Madhya Pradesh governments, Union Home Minister Amit Shah laid the foundation stone for the development of a new terminal of Gwalior airport. The new terminal building of Gwalior Civil Enclave will be 20,000 sq m in size, which is six times larger than the existing terminal. The terminal will be equipped with four passenger boarding bridges and will be able to process 1,400 passengers during peak hours, with an annual handling capacity of 1.5 million. Keeping in view the increasing passenger footfall at Gwalior Airport, the Airports Authority of India has undertaken the expansion work of Rajmata Vijayaraje Scindia Terminal of Gwalior Airport at a cost of ₹4.5 billion. The expansion project includes the construction of the new terminal building with all modern facilities and the upgradation of airside facilities.
