In 2018, the Dhamara Port Company Limited (DPCL), run by the Adani Group, forwarded a proposal to the Odisha government to set up an airport to boost commercial activities near the Dhamra port. The Odisha government accorded in-principle approval in September 2018 and sought a detail project report.[1] In November 2018, the State Government signed a Memorandum of Understanding with DPCL for the development of a commercial airport over 500 acres at the cost of Rs. 500 crore. [2] In January 2020, the Government approved of DPCL's proposal to acquire 274 acres of land for the airstrip. The State Government would take a call on acquiring the remaining land for the project at a later date.[3]
