NEW DELHI: India’s second busiest aviation hub — Mumbai’s CSMIA — will finally get DigiYatra (DY) this month along with five more airports at Ahmedabad, Kochi, Lucknow, Jaipur, and Guwahati. The “implementation and installation” of DY infrastructure at these airports — five of which (except Kochi) are managed by Adani Group — will take place “in a phased manner,” the aviation ministry said in a statement Friday.
The facility was first launched on December 1, 2022, by Union aviation minister Jyotiraditya Scindia at Delhi, Varanasi, and Bengaluru airports. Subsequently it was rolled out at Vijayawada, Pune, Hyderabad, and Kolkata. With the addition of these six airports, the count will go up to 13.
