New Delhi: The International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) has given technical clearance for building a second airport at Mumbai but the present policy did not permit setting up of a new airport at Noida on the outskirts of Delhi, Civil Aviation Minister Praful Patel said today.
On setting up of a new airport at Noida, he said, "Under the present policy, this is not possible" but added the demand would be considered after a new civil aviation policy was formulated.
Under the present policy, a new airport is not allowed within a radius of 70-km of an existing airport.
"There are issues of air space management," the minister said.
