The 1,260 crore New Integrated Terminal Building (Phase-1) at Chennai International Airport, a structure that would increase passenger handling, was officially opened by Prime Minister NarendraModi.
The NITB was specifically created to highlight the state’s rich cultural legacy.
“The airport’s ability to serve passengers will go from 23 million passengers per year (MPPA) to 30 MPPA with the installation of this new integrated terminal building. The new terminal is an impressive representation of the local Tamil culture, including customary components like the Kolam, saree, temples, and other things that emphasise the surrounding environment,” claimed the administration.
Modi also inaugurated other mega projects in Chennai, including the Chennai to Coimbatore Vande Bharat train service.
