Amit Shah becomes the very first passenger to land at Kerala’s new Kannur Airport

Op India  

BJP President Amit Shah on Saturday unofficially became the ‘first passenger’ to have walked through the brand new Kannur international airport in Kerala, which will open shortly to the public. Regardless of Kerala Government trying to thwart Amit Shah’s arrival, which was, however, crushed after the intervention of the civil aviation authorities in Delhi, he arrived with hundreds of people waiting to welcome him. The date of the airport’s commercial opening has not been decided yet but it is set to be inaugurated in December after Kannur International Airport Limited gets the aerodrome license from the Director General of Civil Aviation. He is also scheduled to unveil Balidan Smriti at Mararji Bhavan in Kannur, Kerala and later attend Mahasamadhi Navathi Mahamandala Pooja Sammelan at Sivagiri in Thiruvananthapuram.
