The new hyderabad airport situated at shamshabad is all set to begin its operations from 16th march 2008 . The new hot issue that's making headlines is whether to shut down the begumpet airport or continue its operations along with the new airport at shamshabad , while legally having other airport operational airport other than one at shamshabad is not possible as government has already committed with GMR group that begumpet airport will be closed .
But to counter this PIL is filled in high court of andhra pradesh and the judgment is expected soon . The other problem is related to the employees of this old airports , they along with the employees of all airports across India are going on an indefinite strike from 12 th march 2008 . This tussle between the employees of the Airport Authority of India and the Civil Aviation Ministry on the closure of the Hyderabad and Bangalore airports is now threatening to impact air operations across the country. So if your are taking flight out from any airport across India , be prepared for significant delays.
Well government should not back off due to this strikes as city of Hyderabad has reached the maximum permissible traffic limits . This airport will help in clearing off the traffic menace to a great extend as the traffic gets diverted out of the city towards shamshabad .
