Ambala, April 12 -- As Haryana is set to get its first domestic airport at Hisar that will be thrown open by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday, the authorities have prepped up arrangements at another airport in Ambala Cantonment, which is likely to become operational soon.

The domestic airport in Ambala will be the first in state to use airstrip of the Indian Air Force (IAF) station, one of the oldest in the country, for flight operations. The civil enclave, as it is called in the official communications, was sanctioned under the RCS-UDAN scheme of the Union government in December 2018, under which an airport terminal has been established on 20 acres of land.
