India’s Capital To Get Second International Airport
Government clears plan to build new complex at Jewar, some 72 miles from Delhi International

India’s domestic traffic growth of 20 percent a year has led the federal government to clear a $3 billion proposal to construct a greenfield airport at Jewar, some 72 miles from Delhi International Airport (DIA), the busiest in the country. DIA, which now sees annual passenger throughput of 62 million, will become saturated once it reaches its peak capacity of 109 million.
