Darbhanga airport adds another milestone to India's air connectivity
Darbhanga, adjacent to the India-Nepal border, is a rapidly expanding historic city in the state of Bihar.
The city was connected by air on 8 November 2020 under the regional connectivity scheme "UDAN".
The Darbhanga civil enclave built by the Airports Authority of India is poised to become the busiest RCS (Regional Connectivity Scheme) airport.
The number of daily flights has risen from three to six, which is now connecting Darbhanga to major metros including Delhi and Mumbai.
Darbhanga Airport, with a capacity of about 200 passengers, is also equipped with a child care room, baggage x-ray machine, conveyor belts.
The airport has an apron built to park two AIRBUS-320 aircraft.
In addition, the terminal building has been given a local identity with regional folk art Madhubani paintings.
With the commencement of this airport, passengers from about 17 districts of North Bihar will be benefited.
People of Bihar's Mithilanchal region were demanding the construction of an airport for a long time as they had to endure long, tiring journeys till Patna to catch their flights.
All the required protocols are being followed at Darbhanga Airport.
From maintaining social distancing at the terminal, sanitizing passengers' baggage, cleanliness is being taken care of at the airport.
Under the UDAN scheme that started in 2017, it was resolved to connect every part of the country by air travel.
Under this, around 57 airports have been upgraded so far and travel has started on 326 new air routes.

A powerful 7.1-magnitude earthquake struck Tibet's Tingri county on Tuesday, causing widespread devastation. At least 95 people have been confirmed dead, with more than 130 injured. The earthquake's epicenter, located near the Nepal border, rocked remote Himalayan villages and the holy city of Shigatse, around 180 km away. Tremors were felt in neighboring Nepal, Bhutan, and parts of northern India. Over 1,000 homes were damaged, and many areas have become inaccessible due to collapsed buildings and landslides. Rescue operations are underway, with over 200 soldiers deployed and 1,500 more on standby. Despite the ongoing efforts, aftershocks continue, complicating rescue efforts. Chinese President Xi Jinping has urged full-scale efforts to minimize casualties and provide shelter to those affected in freezing conditions.
