Proposal has already been sent to the state government
The Navi Mumbai Police Commissionerate is pushing hard to get an independent police station purely dedicated to the Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA), given the size and scope of the project and the number of people it will attract when it comes operational.
Very recently the Commissionerate sent a detailed proposal to the state government requesting them to approve the setting up of police stations at the NMIA, Ulwe and Airoli divisions.
As per available information, the proposed police stations at NMIA, Ulwe and Airoli will come under Zone 2 of the Navi Mumbai Police Commissionerate.
The ever-expanding city of Navi Mumbai, the influx of people settling in and the number of big-ticket projects like the NMIA itself, the Nhava Sheva- Sewri Sealink, Logistics Hub, JNPT Port, Dronagiri and Naina have led to the decision of setting up additional number of police stations in Navi Mumbai.
The NMIA will see a huge number of people once it becomes operational and will be nothing less than a small town in itself with its own set of issues. A dedicated police station for the airport will no doubt be a wise decision.
