“Kempegowda International Airport in Bengaluru will have a second terminal that is expected to see a footfall of around 25 million every year. We are preparing to open it for passengers by the end of December. By next year, terminal 2 will also see international passengers boarding and arriving. The second phase construction of terminal 2 is in progress,” an official from Bangalore International Airport Limited (BIAL) was quoted as saying. The report also highlighted that the latest terminal will have 22 entry and exit gates and nine baggage claim belts in it.

Karnataka minister Sudhakar earlier said that the new terminal is built based on a theme that showcases the ethos of Bengaluru as the garden city of India.

Along with terminal 2, PM Modi will also inaugurate 108-foot Kempegowda statue at Bengaluru airport which is named as the ‘statue of prosperity".
