Prime Minister Narendra Modi has inaugurated the Terminal 2 of the Kempegowda International Airport in Bengaluru which has been built at a cost of around Rs 5,000 crore, according to officials.
With the inauguration of T2, the passenger handling capacity as well as the number of counters for check-in and immigration at the airport will double, helping people immensely, the officials said on Wednesday.
The airport will be able to handle around five-six crore passengers annually from its current capacity of 2.5 crore. Terminal 2 is designed as a tribute to the garden city of Bengaluru and the passenger experience is meant to be a “walk in the garden”, the officials said.
