Guwahati marked a major milestone in India's aviation sector as Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the new terminal at Lokapriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport, now the largest in the Northeast. Unveiled just months ago at Advantage Assam 2.0, the terminal was completed in under a year. Named "The Bamboo Orchids," the terminal blends modern design with regional identity, using locally sourced bamboo and drawing inspiration from Assam's kopou phool. Flight operations are set to begin by the end of February 2026.
