Last year, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis had said that the under-construction Navi Mumbai international airport will become operational in 2024

Earlier this month, the Maharashtra government has approved the creation of 22 new posts in the City and Industrial Development Corporation (CIDCO) for faster development of Navi Mumbai Airport Influence Area (NAINA) project

As per a release issued by the corporation, the state government had approved the CIDCO’s request for creation of posts of revenue officers and land survey officers/staff for the NAINA project

The CIDCO is developing NAINA, a well-planned city well-equipped with ultra-modern facilities in 371 sq km area around the Navi Mumbai International Airport, it said

The project is being implemented through 12 Town Planning Schemes (TPS), which required revenue and land survey officers/staff to carry out the works of keeping the land records by updating the entitlements, preparing the property cards, measurement of land, preparing the new maps, etc
