Mysore/Mysuru: Representatives from various fields have stressed the need for the much-delayed expansion of the runway of Mysore Airport at Mandakalli and to make provision for landing and take-off of Boeing planes.
Participating in Airport Advisory Committee (AAC) meeting held at the Airport premises yesterday, representatives from industries, education, tourism and other allied fields bemoaned over the delayed runway expansion. They said because of this reason, only light airplanes were being operated at this airport. Due to non-operation of Boeing airplanes, the air connectivity to important cities and States within the country and outside India had not become a reality. The runway expansion was the panacea for overall development of city, they noted.
