Begumpet Airport

Biggest airport

The place is very beautiful and clean. The airport has so many planes. It is also a visitable place. I saw many takeoffs from this airport. Every evening I see some small planes flying in the atmosphere of Hyderabad. It seems that they are doing some research on Hyderabad. This place is very open and free from pollution.

The existing commercial airport, Begumpet Airport, was unable to handle rising passenger traffic. The state government lead by then chief minister N. Chandrababu Naidu initially considered converting Hakimpet Air Force Station to civilian use; however, the Air Force refused.[6] When the State proposed the construction of a new airport for the Air Force, the Ministry of Defence suggested the State consider sites south of Begumpet Airport.[7] By October 1998, the State had narrowed down to three possible locations for the new airport: Bongloor, Nadergul and Shamshabad.[8] Due to its convenient location near two highways (NH 44 and NH 765) and a railway line,[7] Shamshabad was selected in December 1998.[9] In November 2000, under the N. Chandrababu Naidu government and the Airports Authority of India (AAI) signed a memorandum of understanding on the greenfield airport project, establishing it as a public–private partnership.[10] The State and AAI together would hold a 26% stake in the project, while the remaining 74% would be allotted to private companies.[11] Through a bidding process the Shamshabad international airport with already land acquired of 5000 acres is in government possession and N. Chandrababu Naidu assigned bid to consortium consisting of Grandhi Mallikarjuna Rao(GMR Group) and Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad was chosen as the holder of the 74% stake.[7][11] In December 2002, Hyderabad International Airport Ltd (HIAL), later renamed GMR Hyderabad International Airport Limited (GHIAL), was created as a special purpose entity, into which the State, AAI and GMR–MAHB placed their stakes.[7][12] In September 2003, the members of GHIAL signed a shareholders' agreement, as well as an agreement for state subsidy of over ₹4 billion (US$56 million).[7][13] A concession agreement between GHIAL and the Central Government was signed in December 2004, stipulating that no airport within a 150-kilometre (93 mi) radius of RGIA could be operated.[14] Thus, the closure of Begumpet Airport was required
