The inauguration should be carried out in October last year, but was postponed due to the pandemic and locking Covid-19.
DM told reporters that there was a high probability that the airport inauguration could take place in the third week of October, “but, there is no program schedule to reach us so far.
We make preparations based on possibilities,” he added.
