The airstrip will be upgraded for joint use by the Government of Jammu and Kashmir.[2] A 1200 metre long airstrip will be developed over 20 acres of land. The upgrade work will be taken up by the Public Works Department for which the Government has acquired land in Pochhal, Matta and Kishtwar villages.[3]

The airstrip has been included in the UDAN scheme,[4] launched by the Ministry of Civil Aviation and is expected to help the promotion of tourism in the region.[1]
