The issue of expanding Patna Airport’s runway was highlighted today in Rajya Sabha, drawing attention to long-pending demands for infrastructure upgrade. Airport authorities have reportedly requested an extension from the current 6,800 feet to 12,000 feet to accommodate larger aircraft. Local administration and civil aviation officials are reviewing the proposal, which if approved could significantly boost connectivity, increase flight frequency, and support regional economic growth in Bihar. Residents and business-leaders have welcomed the proposal, saying improved air connectivity could jump-start investment and travel convenience in the region.
