KATHMANDU, Sept. 25 -- Minister for Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation, Yogesh Bhattarai has said that there is no alternative to the Nijgadh International Airport in Bara as the capacity of the only international airport in the country - the Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA) - is sure to get saturated in the near future.

Speaking at a premium show #2030 of Nepal Republic Media with Prakriti Bhattarai on Tuesday, Minister Bhattarai said the construction of Nijgadh Airport is a process of preparation for future tourism.
