In October 2024, PIB reported that the Union Cabinet approved the development of a new greenfield airport at Dholera, Ahmedabad — formal approval enabling construction to proceed on the already-announced site near Navagam.

What came next: construction milestones through 2025 and the first successful test flight in June 2026.
