The Maharashtra government would soon reclaim the Latur, Osmanabad, Nanded, Yavatmal, and Baramati airports that were awarded to Reliance Airport Development in August 2009 for development.
“Around 2009, some airports were given to Reliance for development for 30 years. However, due to the lack of progress in developing these airports, the State government is considering taking them back from the company. Works in Nanded and Latur airports have come to a complete halt,” Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis informed the State Assembly on Friday.
Anil Ambani-led Reliance Airport Development had also failed to clear its dues, leading the State government to seek the opinion of the Advocate General to expedite the resolution.
