Nagpur is the second capital of Maharashtra and has strategic central location in India as well as the international aviation routes. It has a great agricultural and minerals rich hinterland with huge forests. It has connectivity to all parts of India, both by National Highways as well as main trunk rail routes and also the air connectivity. Nagpur city is educational and business center of central India. In real sense, it is a cosmopolitan tier two city of not only Maharashtra but India. In recent survey it has been found that Nagpur is the second most cosmopolitan city in India after Mumbai. It has excellent roads, water, power and telecommunication infrastructure. It has been awarded as India’s No.2 green city. It has about 45 engineering colleges and about 13 medical colleges in and around the city. Every year about 10,000 Engineers and about 3,000 Doctors are graduating from these colleges.
In order to tap this potential, Govt. of Maharashtra has decided to develop a composite project called ‘Multi-Model International Passenger and Cargo Hub Airport at Nagpur’ (MIHANTM). The project comprises of developing the existing domestic airport of Nagpur as an international passenger and cargo hub airport, along with a Multi Product Special Economic Zone (SEZ), which is abutting to the boundary of the airport.
The existing airport presently on about 400 Hectares is to be developed as an international passenger and cargo hub airport over a total area of about 1,295 Hectares by providing world-class huge terminal building on about 3 million Sq.Ft. built-up area, constructing a second parallel runway of 4,000 Mt. length and 60 Mt. width and an exclusive cargo complex. It will have a holding capacity of about 100 aircraft.
