After being provided 821-acre land by the state government, the Airport Authority of India is working to develop the new airport at a war footing. The new airport will be ready by December 15," Yogi said.
Civil Aviation Minister Scindia said that Ayodhya's airport should reflect the city's historic significance and culture.
