Bokaro Residents Protest Mahato's Airport Advocacy
Imagine two airports, one in Bokaro and one in Dhanbad.
People in Bokaro were excited for their airport to open so they could fly places.
But then, a politician from Dhanbad, Mr. Mahato, talked to the government about improving Dhanbad's airport instead.
This made people in Bokaro angry because they felt forgotten.
They think Mr. Mahato is trying to stop their airport from being developed.
They protested by burning a picture of him and want to name the Bokaro airport after a local leader.
