The new Bengaluru International Airport Ltd,(BIAL) which was scheduled to open on March 30th could be delayed to another 4-6 weeks.

 

 According to the Airport Authority of India which had submitted in its status report to the civil aviation ministry had informed that it would need more time to install new Air Traffic Controllers (ATC) in the new airport.

 

Further the airport personnels need to be fully trained to operate the equipments which could lead to delay in the opening of the airport. A final decision on the delay in the opening of the airport will be taken after the govt and BIAL officials meet with the Union aviation minister on Monday.
