Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): The arrival hall for domestic passengers will be inaugurated at Raja Bhoj Airport on Sunday. Civil Aviation Minister Kinjarapu Rammohan Naidu will inaugurate the facilities virtually from Rajkot airport.

The facilities to be inaugurated at the Bhopal airport include a newly created domestic arrival hall with modern passenger amenities, a new fire station equipped with advanced aircraft rescue and firefighting (ARFF) infrastructure, and the formal inauguration of the Digi Yatra facility for seamless and contactless passenger processing.
Airport Director Ramji Awasthi said, “Raja Bhoj Airport will become the first in Madhya Pradesh to have a two-level modern terminal with separate floors for arrival and departure. It will help reduce passenger congestion and streamline movement.
