Jamshedpur, Oct 8: Jamshedpur MP Bidyut Baran Mahto met chief secretary Sukhdev Singh in Ranchi today and discussed on Dhalbhumgarh Airport among other issues in his Lok Sabha constituency.
Mahato reminded the Chief Secretary about the Dhalbhumgarh airport and said that there are hardly 2500-3000 trees there. Whereas misleading information has been provided to him by the Forest Department in this regard. He also said that the officials of the Airport Authority of India said that the number of trees available at this airport is necessary. Due to this, the beauty of the airport will increase a lot. He also said that the Dhalbhumgarh airport has been selected by the central government under the UDAN scheme.

Expressing his anger, he said that the only work left for some officers of the forest department is to inform the public representatives including senior officials and create confusion.
