Residents of Jewar express joy as PM Modi inaugurates Noida International Airport, anticipating new jobs and regional development.

Greater Noida, March 27

Residents of Jewar in Uttar Pradesh expressed their happiness with the Noida International Airport, scheduled to be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday. The residents hoped for new employment opportunities in the coming days and credited farmers for playing a major role in the project.

Speaking to IANS, Amit Rathi, a resident of Greater Noida, said, "This airport was essential for the development of this region. New schemes and employment opportunities will come up due to this. When an airport comes up, new companies also arrive in that place and by default we will have more employment opportunities. Also since there is cargo facility at the airport, the manufacturing sector will get a boost."

"We are proud that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is coming here to inaugurate the airport," he added.

Another resident of Greater Noida emphasised on the role of farmers in the project.

"The farmers had a huge role to play in the building and development of the airport as they have given their lands for the project," he said.

He said, "This airport will benefit people from Western Uttar Pradesh as well as National Capital Region (NCR). People here will also get employment. The place has seen progress after the airport came up. The price of the land has also increased."

Meanwhile, heavy security has been deployed near the airport as part of preparations for the inauguration event. Arrangements are also underway at the venue of the public meeting, scheduled to be addressed by PM Modi.

BJP's MLA from Jewar, Dhirendra Singh spoke to IANS regarding PM Modi's schedule for the inauguration.

"According to the information received so far, PM Modi will land in Jewar around 10:30 AM. From there he will reach the terminal building (of Noida International airport)," he said.

He further said, "He (PM Modi) will inspect the security measures, boarding passes and other arrangements for passengers. PM Modi will then watch the presentation of the cargo airport. Then around 11:30-12 PM he will reach the venue of the rally which has been made near the terminal. There he will address the crowd."

Dhirendra Singh also elaborated about the latest facilities at the Noida International Airport.

He said, "It is a greenfield airport. The system built inside the terminal has latest face recognition technology for security purposes. This will reduce the time taken for security checks. Overall, facilities have been made for passengers so that they can complete their formalities in a short duration."

He claimed that the terminal building has been made in such a way so that it uses "minimum energy during the day and in fact uses solar energy."

Singh added that the runway of the airport will also be inaugurated on March 28.

My heartfelt thanks to the farmers of Jewar who gave their land for this project. Their sacrifice is the real foundation of this development. I hope the promised employment truly reaches the local youth and they are given priority in jobs.

Great step for infrastructure. But I really hope the government ensures proper connectivity - better roads, metro links to Delhi and Noida. An airport is useless if it takes 3 hours to reach from South Delhi. Fingers crossed!

As someone who travels frequently from Gurgaon, this is a welcome development. The cargo facility mention is key - could be a massive boost for manufacturing and exports in the region. Excited to see it operational.

Proud moment for Western UP. For decades, this region felt neglected in terms of big-ticket infrastructure. This airport, along with the expressways, is changing the game. Land prices shooting up is proof of the confidence it brings.

While the inauguration is good, let's not forget the execution. Hope the solar energy promise is fully realized and it doesn't become another white elephant. The focus should remain on efficiency and passenger experience in the long run.
