Pune airport authority plans to build cargo facility on 1.75 acre land

Pune international airport authority is all set to commence a cargo facility on the 1.75-acre land which will be handed over by the defence ministry in the next week, says reports. The 1.75-acre land is part of 13-acre land which the Ministry of Defence will be handing over to the airport authority. “As of now, we will set up a makeshift cargo facility on that vacant land. The defence ministry had approved to transfer land in March, the hand over process is remaining,” said Santosh Dhoke, Pune airport director in an official statement. The defence department already has its establishments on the remaining 11.25 acres of land. The department will be relocating all its assets before handing land to the airport authority, said reports.
