BHUBANESWAR: The Hotel and Restaurant Association of Odisha (HRAO) has backed the State government’s proposal to the Centre for setting up an international airport at Puri.As the existing Biju Patnaik International Airport at Bhubaneswar could not be expanded further, the hoteliers believed, once set up the new airport at Puri will be the gateway of the State for international destinations.
The proposed airport will not only attract large number of Hindus settled in various foreign countries to the land of the Lord Jagannath, but large number of Indians can have a direct flight access to the first blue flag beach at Puri.
