"Air operations from Ojhar airport in Nashik is likely to begin in couple of months," Bhujbal said in a meeting with representatives of aircraft companies and concerned officials yesterday.
He also said that two days back, state's deputy Chief Minister Chhagan Bhujbal had a meeting in Mumbai and observed whether Hindustan Aeronautic Ltd. airport could be operated as an alternative to Mumbai airport.
The MP said that Ojhar airport, in comparison to Ahmedabad airport, is nearby Mumbai with only 140 nautical miles. This will result in saving fuel as well.
