This was informed in the Lok Sabha by Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia in response to a question raised by Congress MP from Nalgonda N. Uttam Kumar Reddy. In his question, Mr. Uttam Kumar Reddy raised the status of six airports proposed by the government in Telangana. In response, the Minister said the Telangana government had not yet submitted the proposal to the Centre for site clearance for setting up new greenfield airports in the State.
