"India Will Become Global Aviation Hub, Like Dubai, In 5 Years": Jyotiraditya Scindia | Read

Aviation has really started on its growth curve in India now and the Delhi airport will become the world's second-largest airport by the end of the year, Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia has said. In an exclusive interview with NDTV on Wednesday, Mr Scindia said civil aviation infrastructure in the country has expanded at a "scorching" pace under Prime Minister Narendra Modi. "Delhi airport has a throughput capability of 70 million, which will go up to 109 million come December. That means that Delhi is going to become one of the largest airports in the world. We are going to be second, if at all, only to Atlanta. So that's the scale that you are looking at."
