New Delhi, Dec 11: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will formally open Goa’s second international airport at Mopa on Sunday during his visit to the state, the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) announced. The airport, which cost $2,870 million to build, will open for business on January 5.

Airlines like Indigo and GoFirst have already revealed plans to start 168 and 42 flights from the new airport, respectively, the following month. The government is making this effort to provide top-notch transportation and infrastructure across the nation.

The airport was designed around the idea of sustainable infrastructure for about Rs 2,870 crore. In November 2016, Prime Minister Modi laid the airport’s cornerstone.

“The development of a Greenfield airport at Mopa, Goa is a prestigious project being developed by the State Government of Goa under public-private-partnership (PPP) mode at a revised sanctioned project cost of Rs2870 crore,” an official statement from the government said.

The new international airport is situated in Goa’s northern region, some 35 kilometres from Panaji, the state’s capital. The Center gave the Goa government its initial approval in March 2000 to build a new airport at Mopa village.

The airport is anticipated to support the socio-economic growth of the state and cater to the demands of the tourism sector, according to official sources. With direct connections to numerous local and foreign locations, it might function as a significant logistical hub.

For the airport, multimodal connectivity is also envisaged. Being a top-notch airport, it will also provide travellers with a sense and understanding of Goa.
