The Uttar Pradesh Cabinet on Tuesday approved a proposal to name the airport in Ayodhya after the deity Ram, reported PTI. The state government said that its Cabinet had approved the proposal to rename the Ayodhya airport Maryada Purshottam Shriram Airport.
The proposal will now be sent to the Union civil aviation ministry.
A statement from the Uttar Pradesh government said that the land acquisition process was currently under way.
