The official said that the construction of this airstrip is very important for the country. Kashmir borders with Pakistan. A part of Ladakh is contiguous with China and a part with Pakistan. India's relations with both China and Pakistan are tense. In the event of war, this strip will be very effective for Army, Air Force and other security agencies. It can also be used in floods and other natural disasters. The decision to build this airstrip in South Kashmir on the Srinagar-Jammu highway was taken in 2017. 12 such airstrips will be built in different parts of the country including Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Bengal, Odisha and Gujarat.
