Prime minister Narendra Modi will lay the groundwork for Noida International Airport near Jewar in the Gautam Buddh Nagar district of Uttar Pradesh. It will be the UP Nine and the fifth international airport. It is the highest in any state.
Here are the top 8 points in this story:
1. The Prime Minister tweeted: “November 25 is an important day for India and Uttar Pradesh to build their infrastructure. At 1:00 p.m., the base of Noida International Airport will be laid. The project will be completed. repair industry, connectivity and tourism, ”he said. UP CM Yogi Adityanath said that after the initial phase an investment of over Rs 10,000 and up to Rs 35,000 should be made when the airport is completed.
2. In a statement released on Wednesday, the center said the development of the airport was in line with the president’s vision to develop “future aircraft plans.” The center also claimed that the BJP, which faces elections next year, has a “special focus” on the UP that it dares to maintain key states ahead of the 2024 elections.
3. This will be Western UP’s first public event since Prime Minister Modis announced the abolition of farm duties last week. This law led to a period of fifteen months of strong opposition from farmers in the Punjab and the western part of the UP.

About 40 km from Noida and about the same distance by organizing several logistics centers in Dadri. The building will cover more than 1,300 hectares in four phases, the first project to be completed in 2024. The estimated cost of phase 4 is Rs 1,050 billion, the agency said.

Land recognition by the local BJP deputy has been speeded up. A well-functioning Noida international airport handles around 1.2 million passengers per year, along with Delhi, Noida, Ghaziabad, Agra, Faridabad and surrounding areas. It will also reduce traffic to and from IGI airport, the center said.
