Hisar: On the occasion of Ambedkar Jayanti, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday inaugurated air services from Maharaja Agrasen Airport in Haryana’s Hisar in the presence of Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini and Union Civil Aviation Minister Kinjarapu Rammohan Naidu. During the launch of the first commercial flight of the 70-seater Alliance Air plane from Hisar to Ayodhya, the foundation stone of the terminal-2 building at the airport was also laid.
The Chief Minister said this airport is a significant gift not only for the people of Hisar but also for neighboring districts. The launch of air services will greatly enhance regional trade, tourism and investment opportunities. He said the Prime Minister’s visit underscored his unwavering commitment to the development of Haryana.
“Today is the 135th birth anniversary of Dr B.R. Ambedkar, who framed the Constitution. I pay my tributes to him and extend my greetings to the entire state. April 14 is going to be historic as we are going to witness the flag off of the flight services from Hisar to Ayodhya,” CM Saini said. During his day-long visit, PM Modi will inaugurate and lay the foundation stone of several major development projects of Rs 10,000 crore aimed at enhancing the state’s infrastructure and connectivity. The terminal project, valued at over Rs 410 crore, will include a state-of-the-art passenger terminal, a cargo terminal, and an air traffic control building.
Taking to X, PM Modi on Sunday posted, “Tomorrow, on Ambedkar Jayanti, the day will be dedicated to Haryana’s development journey. At around 10:15 in the morning, I will inaugurate commercial flights between Hisar-Ayodhya and lay the foundation stone of the new terminal building of the airport. In the afternoon, there is a program related to many projects in Yamunanagar as well.”
The introduction of scheduled flights from Hisar — twice weekly to Ayodhya and thrice weekly to Jammu, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, and Chandigarh — marks a significant milestone in Haryana’s aviation connectivity.
