Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday inaugurated Jharkhand's Deoghar airport alongside Chief Minister Hemant Soren and Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia. This is the second international airport in the state, with the first one in capital Ranchi.

As part of the ceremony, the Prime Minister flagged off a domestic flight - an IndiGo service to Kolkata. Addressing the gathering, Modi said, "We had dreamt of Deoghar airport for a long time; it is being fulfilled now."

Scindia said the airport would be linked to Ranchi, Patna and Delhi in the days to come.

The foundation stone of the airport was laid by Prime Minister Modi in May 2018. The airport is spread over 657 acres and was constructed at a cost of Rs 4 billion. It will improve connectivity to Baba Baidyanath Dham, an important religious destination. The airport is equipped to handle over five lakh passengers annually. It has a 2,500-metre-long runway that can handle Airbus A320 planes.
