BJP addresses concerns over Dabolim Airport closure and asserts political dominance in Goa

Panaji: In response to growing concerns over the potential closure of Dabolim airport, Goa BJP President Sadanand Tanavade assured the public that flights will continue to operate at both Dabolim and the new Mopa airport.

During these visits, workers will present a letter from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and beneficiaries will be greeted with a traditional Namaskar as part of the Beneficiaries Labharthi Abhiyan.
