Foundation laying of a new civil enclave at Bihta Airport, which is expected to ease the pressure on Patna Airport and cater to future aviation demands of the region.

These developments are expected to generate employment, boost tourism, and attract investment in allied sectors, including hospitality, logistics, and retail. Enhanced air connectivity will also benefit students, entrepreneurs, and migrant workers, offering faster access to other Indian cities and abroad.

With this move, Bihar is not only entering a new phase of infrastructure expansion but is also establishing itself on the national aviation map. The scheduled events on May 29, 2025, will mark a new chapter in the state’s development story—signaling growth, accessibility, and modernization for millions of people.
