India's Airports Expand, Infrastructure and Staffing Challenges Arise

India's Airports Expand, Infrastructure and Staffing Challenges Arise

Imagine airports are like houses for airplanes.

Right now, India is building a lot more airport houses!

They're spending billions to make them bigger.

Delhi and Mumbai are getting extra airports so even more planes can land.

Airlines are also buying many more airplanes, planning to double their fleet.

But, there are a few worries.

Are there enough places for the airplanes to park?

Can they manage the space in the sky efficiently?

Also, there aren't enough people to help, like air traffic controllers and engineers.

So, while things are getting bigger, they need to solve these problems too, so that everything can run smoothly.
