A1 and 2 only
B2 and 3 only
C1 and 3 only
D1, 2 and 3
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. 1 and 2 only
Answer: A. Only Donyi Polo and Kushinagar were constructed as greenfield projects.
Donyi Polo Airport (Itanagar, Arunachal Pradesh) was inaugurated in November 2022 as Arunachal Pradesh's first greenfield airport. Kushinagar International Airport (Uttar Pradesh) was inaugurated in October 2021, also a greenfield project linked to Buddhist tourism circuits.
Vijayawada International Airport (at Gannavaram, Andhra Pradesh) is NOT a greenfield airport. It is an existing domestic airport that was upgraded to international status; the runway and core infrastructure pre-date the upgrade.
