Airports in Khotang yet to resume services

Khotang, October 30

Local passengers have been facing difficulties as airports, which were closed during monsoon this year, in Khotang, have not resumed services yet.

Air services at Manamaya Rai Khanidanda Airport, Lamidanda Airport and Thamkharka Airport in the district did not resume services even during the festivals. Regular flights were halted at Khanidanda Airport after rainwater filled the runway and eroded the edge of the runway in May 15.  Similarly, regular flights have been halted at Lamidanda Airport for blacktopping the runway. The runway repair has yet to complete due to negligence of the contractor YAN-SAP-Surya Construction JV.
