Kalaburagi Airport (
History
The ₹120 crore greenfield project was initially scheduled be built under Public–private partnership (PPP) with the government of Karnataka (GoK).[6]
On 15 November 2007, the government of Karnataka awarded the Gulbarga Airport project to a consortium of
Gulbarga Airport Developers Pvt. Ltd. (GADPL), a
Gulbarga Airport was to have started operations in the latter half of 2012 but was delayed[10] due to financial mismanagement/disputes between the shareholders of Gulbarga Airport Development Ltd (GADL).[11]
The state government terminated the contract in January 2015 for not complying with the Project Development Agreement (PDA), which required the completion of construction work by May 2012. The State Government then decided to complete the remaining work through its own Public Works Department.
The airport was inaugurated by Chief Minister of Karnataka B. S. Yediyurappa on 22 November 2019.[15][16]
In 2021, Kalaburagi Airport saw steady surge in passenger and flight traffic with as many as 619 flights were operated between April and July 2021[17][18]
