The Noida International Airport would be the state’s fifth international airport after Varanasi, Lucknow, Kushinagar and Ayodhya.
A review meeting is expected this week that would be between the airport management and led by Union Civil Aviation Minister K. Rammohan Naidu, the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security. Spread across nearly 1,300 hectares in Gautam Buddh Nagar, the Noida International Airport is the country’s largest public-private partnership (PPP) infrastructure aviation sector project. It would be Asia’s largest and the world’s fourth largest airport.
Growth Opportunities
The operational launch of Jewar International Airport would significantly boost regional logistics, employment, trade and tourism infrastructure.
The strategic location of NIA would help in fostering considerable economic growth, improving the overall business environment in Delhi NCR and attracting foreign investment.
The Noida International Airport (IATA: DXN, ICAO: VIND) would be complemented with out-of-the-box security features, thanks to an innovative blend of surveillance, automation and artificial intelligence.
Ajit Singh Yadav, project manager at ESEC Security Consultants, remarked that the crash-rated bollard system would make it impossible to make any kind of infiltration impossible, physically and technologically. The Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) would be entrusted with the task of managing the airport security operations. More than 350 high-resolution CCTV cameras would track unattended luggage, abnormal behaviour and unauthorized moments in real-time.
