Title : Need for a second Airport terminal at International Airport, Trivandrum.
SHRI VARKALA RADHAKRISHNAN : Now, the Trivandrum International Airport is one of the income-earning airports in India, but the passenger amenities that are available there are far below the international standards. Even the bare necessities have not been provided there. In spite of our repeated requests, the Ministry of Aviation has not taken any concrete steps towards the development of this international airport at Trivandrum. It has already been sanctioned that a second international terminal will be opened shortly. Even that announcement was made some years ago. But nothing has happened. I met the Minister several times and requested him to take immediate steps for starting work for the second international terminal. So far he has not done anything.
           So, I take this opportunity to bring to his notice, through you, that immediate steps should be taken towards the commencement of work for the second international terminal at Trivandrum.
MR. SPEAKER: Shri Ramji Lal Suman.
