Noida International Airport to give new impetus to the economy of Western UP

Noida International Airport, a Yogi Adityanath-led project, aims to boost Western UP's economy with 5,000+ jobs and world-class connectivity.

"Special programs have been implemented to benefit the Project Affected Families (PAF) at the initiative of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath - Rakesh Kumar Singh, YEIDA CEO"

Noida, December 11

Noida International Airport (NIA) is set to become a prime example of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath's strong leadership and visionary thinking. This world-class greenfield airport will not only provide a new direction for Delhi-NCR's global connectivity but also give a new impetus to the economy of Western Uttar Pradesh, the release said.

The Chief Minister has given top priority to the timely completion of the project, continuously reviewing its progress, so that the farmers and families who have given their land to make this dream a reality can receive maximum benefits.

Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) CEO Rakesh Kumar Singh said, "Special programs have been implemented to benefit the Project Affected Families (PAF) at the initiative of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath".

This project, implemented under the PPP model and led by Yamuna International Airport Pvt. Ltd. (YIAPL) and Noida International Airport Ltd. (NIAL), involves the participation of more than 30 reputed companies, including Tata Projects, Indian Oil, and Bird Group. More than 5,000 employment opportunities are being created, including all government benefits such as minimum wage, PF, ESI, and gratuity.

As per the release, more than 180 candidates have been registered on the online career portal to connect PAF youth with employment. More than 300 young people participated in three special recruitment camps, and offer letters were issued to 24 of them.

Furthermore, to promote skill development, ITI Jewar has been modernised, and courses such as passenger handling and ramp operations are being conducted there. Of the 28 trainees, 24 have successfully secured employment.

In addition, approximately 100 young people from Project Affected Families (PAF) have received training in English and soft skills. A joint committee of NIAL, the district administration, and YIAPL is monitoring all these initiatives.

Noida International Airport will be a state-of-the-art facility, working toward net-zero emissions, showcasing a perfect blend of Swiss efficiency and Indian hospitality.

With an initial annual capacity of 1.2 crore passengers, this airport will serve as an economic hub for Western Uttar Pradesh. Built under the leadership of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, this airport will not only elevate infrastructure to new heights but also open numerous employment and opportunity doors for the youth of Western UP.

While the project sounds impressive, I hope the promises to the farmers who gave their land are kept in the long term. The article mentions benefits, but we've seen many projects where initial promises fade. The joint committee must ensure transparency.

Net-zero emissions and Swiss efficiency? That's a big claim. If they pull it off, it will be a model for the entire country. The skill development at ITI Jewar is a smart move – we need more such initiatives linking training to actual jobs.

As someone who travels frequently to NCR for work, a new international airport is a welcome relief. IGI is perpetually congested. Hoping this eases traffic and boosts business in the entire corridor.

Bahut badhiya! This will completely transform the real estate and industrial landscape of Greater Noida, Jewar, and nearby areas. My relatives there are already seeing property values rise. The economic impetus mentioned is very real.

Good to see Tata Projects and other big names involved. It lends credibility. But 5000+ jobs is just the start. The ancillary industries and services around an airport will create lakhs more opportunities. A true game-changer for UP's youth.
