Union Minister of State for Civil Aviation, Murlidhar Mohol, informed that 70% work on the NMIL has been completed.
Main Story: Residents of Navi Mumbai can look forward to the long-awaited launch of Navi Mumbai International Airport (NMIA) in March 2025, as announced enthusiastically by Union Minister Murlidhar Mohol during his visit to Pune. With a deep understanding of the community’s anticipation, Mohol revealed that construction progress stands at 70%, well ahead of the original December 2024 target. Assuring the public, he assured that the final 30% will be completed on schedule.
The NMIA was earlier promised to start operations in the month of December 2024, but got delayed for several reasons. However, work was expedited in the months that followed, resulting the completion of 70% of the crucial infrastructure of the airport.
With Mohol promising the commencement of NMIA in less than a year from now, residents of Navi Mumbai are hopeful of the realisation of a long-cherished dream in sight, while also hoping that no new roadblocks show up again.
For those who are unaware, real estate prices in the areas surrounding the Navi Mumbai International Airport have already started increasing, first owing to the successful opening and running of the Mumbai Trans Link Harbour, named Atal Setu, and the slow but obvious completion of the NMIA. Developers and
property brokers have already started hiking property prices, and existing buyers and investors in the region have seen a decent appreciation in prices.
As a result of these mega projects, property prices in Ulwe, Uran, PCBD-Belapur, Kharghar, Kamothe, Kalamboli and Panvel have started to see a long-awaited appreciation. As the NMIA near completion, property rates will grow further, local property dealers assert.
In addition to the NMIA update, Mohol unveiled plans to expand Pune Airport, enhancing its capacity to accommodate larger aircraft. This expansion aims to bolster international connections and further integrate Pune into the global aviation network, a move welcomed by local businesses and travellers alike.
