A joint team of the Airports Authority of India (AAI) and the state transport department inspected the existing infrastructure of Malda airport on Monday, after chief minister Mamata Banerjee earlier this month said that her government was working to start regular flight services from Malda.
A two-member team of AAI led by Dhananjay Tiwari, a deputy general manager of AAI, along with two officials of the transport department, surveyed the runway of the airport here and other facilities at the site.
Senior officials of the Malda district administration, including two additional district magistrates (ADMs), were present.
