Airports, Jagatsinghpur, Paradip - Jatadhari - Kujanga September 17th. 2010, 9:27amFollowing is an excerpt from a report in Steelguru.com.
Paradip Port Trust is planning to have an airstrip within the port premises to facilitate movement to and from the port.
A resolution in this regard was recently passed by the board of trustees of the port. Mr Biplav Kumar chairman of PPT told Business Line that "We’ve also received in-principle consent of the Shipping Ministry.”
… The land for the proposed airstrip, as the port Chairman informed, has been identified.
Since the PCPIR in Paradip has been approved, I expect this airstrip will be established soon.
