Telangana CM Reddy invites public to suggest new name for Mamnoor airport

Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy has asked the general public to come up with a suitable name for Warangal’s long-pending Mamnoor airport as part of its new identity, with the airport project now moving ahead following completion of the required land acquisition.

In a post on X on Saturday, Reddy said State government has allocated ₹295 crore for acquiring land for Mamnoor Airport, and the required land has been fully acquired and handed over to the Airports Authority of India (AAI).

The development is expected to pave the way for the revival of the airport project, which has remained pending for several years. The government sees Mamnoor Airport as a potential gateway for industry, tourism, education, employment and investment in the Warangal region.

The airport is also expected to strengthen air connectivity to the region and support its broader economic development.

The Telangana government has projected the airport as an important part of its efforts to expand connectivity and create new growth centres beyond Hyderabad.
