Adani Group to take over Guwahati airport by October

GUWAHATI: The Adani Group is all set to take over the management of northeast’s biggest airport in Guwahati by October, said official sources at the Airports Authority of India (AAI).

The company’s employees will start working with the AAI staff at the Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport from next week to get familiarised with the task before the management is handed over to the private operator.

“Only security and air traffic communication will be looked after by AAI,” sources said. The management would have taken over in July itself this year, but the company sought time until October.
