💨 Abstract

The demand for a second international airport in Bengaluru at Sira, Tumakuru district, has gained momentum, with Home Minister G Parameshwara supporting the cause. However, Infrastructure Minister M B Patil suggests it may only be viable as a district or regional airport, not for Bengaluru. Several legislators have signed a petition for the airport at Sira, which is about 120 km from Bengaluru.
