Mangaluru, Sep 11, 2021: The name Adani has been dropped from the nameboard of the Mangaluru International Airport following the protest by locals. The name board is now the same as earlier, prior to the handing over of the operations of the airport to the Adani Enterprises, informed social activist Dilraj Alva.
Speaking to reporters here, Alva pointed out that as per the agreement of handing over the operations and maintenance of the airport, there was no scope to change the name of the airport, as revealed through an RTI reply. The legal battle waged in this regard has now yielded result and the nameboard of the airport now has only Mangaluru International Airport, he added.
