JAMSHEDPUR – Bidyut Baran Mahato, the BJP candidate for the Jamshedpur Lok Sabha seat, engaged in a direct interaction with the city’s business community at Chamber Bhavan on Tuesday.

In his address, Mahato stated that constructing Dhalbhum Airport is essential for the region’s development.
He noted that the Central Government had allocated Rs 100 crore for the project, but work halted because the State Government declared the area a Wildlife Area and did not provide the necessary NOC.
