The district administration has floated a proposal to set up a new airport for Jagdalpur[8] in Ulnar village of Bastar district. This airport is expected to be set up in an area measuring 250 hectares. It would have a 3 km long and 200 metres wide runway. The airport would also boast of a state of the art airport terminal building. Since about 92% (229 hectares) of the land required is owned by the government, the land acquisition process is expected to be quick leading to a faster development time for the airport.
