Guwahati airport to soon have three more hangars

New Delhi: Guwahati airport would soon have three more hangars to park the growing number of aircraft operating from there, with the government today approving the swapping of land between the airports authority and a children's village of prominent NGO Save Our Souls (SOS).

The decision to swap 2,397 square metre land of the SOS village with equivalent land owned by the Airports Authority of India was taken at a meeting of the Union Cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

An official spokesperson said the Secretary General of the SOS village has already given written consent for swapping of the village land with AAI land.

The land swap would facilitate the construction of the hangars at the Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport.
