Eknath Shinde, Chief Minister, Maharashtra, announced that the Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA) was on track to open for air traffic the following year. He mentioned that the project implementors had stated December as the target, but he had instructed them to aim for starting operations in March, April, or at the latest, May. He emphasised the significance of the airport for both the state and the country and assured full cooperation from the state government.

During an aerial inspection of the airport site, Shinde, accompanied by deputy chief minister Devendra Fadnavis, ensured that the construction was progressing according to schedule. After the inspection, a presentation was given by the Adani Group, the project implementers.
