During the ceremony, Union Minister Gadkari highlighted that the upgraded international airport would act as a massive catalyst for the tourism and mining sectors across the Vidarbha region, while actively urging the Civil Aviation Ministry to establish direct international flights from Nagpur to global hubs like Singapore and Dubai. Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis echoed this optimistic vision, pointing out that significant investments are already flowing into the local aviation sector through the Indian Air Force’s Maintenance Command and various defense establishments. Fadnavis explained that the addition of a second runway will eventually transform Nagpur into a major Defense Aviation Manufacturing Hub, drawing further heavy industrial investments. Ultimately, the leadership expressed complete confidence that the newly managed airport will serve as a powerful economic growth engine not just for Nagpur, but for the entire Vidarbha region and Central India.
