Mr. Manohar Lal said that the terminal will be built on 20 acres of land which will cost about 20 and a half crore rupees. It will not take much time for the airport to start operations after the terminal is built as the investment and other arrangements are already in place. He said that till now this air force station of Ambala was not a civil airport. But now the idea came that a civil airport will be built here, then its benefit will probably be much more than the other small airports.
The Chief Minister said that the Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi had launched the country’s common citizen (Udran) scheme which aimed to enable air travel even by a wearer of air slippers. First of all, we will reap the benefits of this flight plan from Ambala.
He said that Haryana government has applied for routes under Udhan Yojana. Soon we will get approval. Some of the routes like Dehradun, Lucknow, Amritsar, Jaipur, Shimla are expected to get immediate approval. This is going to bring great convenience to the people of Ambala and its nearby districts.

Work has been going on for 3 consecutive years and soon by the end of this year or the beginning of next year some activity will be started from the Usa airport.
He said that Haryana should be seen from the air although there was no such airport in Shru which was on the land of Haryana. But we are gradually advancing in the aviation sector. He said that the development of Gurugram has been possible only because of its proximity to Delhi Airport. With this thought, the government has planned to develop a big airport in Hisar. Similarly, Jewar Airport will also benefit from it. Faridabad district will get the most benefit and there will be progress there as well.
He said that Chandigarh airport in which 50 percent of Haryana also belongs to us, but its influence area is only from Panchkula to Ambala. But for Chandigarh also, this airport of Ambala will serve as a support. Similarly small airports like Karnal, Bhiwani, Narnaul, Sirsa are present in Haryana which are benefiting the citizens.

Not only this, the central government has also approved the new national highway in Haryana. About 50 to 60 thousand crores worth of projects have been approved by the Central Government for Haryana.
