Central committee chooses Mopa for air port Sandesh Prabhudesai 11 March 1998 <After waiting for over three long years, Goa now hopes to get an international civilian air port of its own, clearing a major hurdle of infrastructure in the tourist state. The central government, in principle, has given a green signal to the proposal as well as one of the sites, after inspecting it in person and witnessing the problems faced by the commuters at the Dabolim air port.> This places the origin of the new-airport move at around 1995! <While Goa's genuine issue got caught up into a broader controversy of several other states demanding air ports in their respective regions, it got expedited when former prime minister H D Deve Gowda took it up at a priority level, following his visit in December last. The official nod, in principle, has come from the joint sub-committee of the civil aviation ministry and the Airport Authority of India, who last month conducted site inspection of the existing airport as well as the new proposed sites.> We see here the link with the proposed initernational airport at Devenahalli in which Deve Gowda may have had a personal interest. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- * G * O * A * N * E * T *** C * L * A * S * S * I * F * I * E * D * S * ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Spread the Christmas cheer - even when you're not here!
