On February 27, the day before the former chief minister B S Yediyurappa turns 80, the prime minister will dedicate the new airport in Shivamogga. The infrastructure would increase trade, connectivity, and tourism in the area, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Friday, days before his trip to Shivamogga in election-bound Karnataka to officially open the new airport. B.Y. Raghavendra, a Shivamogga MP, released a video of the airport's terminal and stated that the airport's long-held desire had come true in his twitter threads, to which Modi was reacting. According to Modi, the airport in Shivamogga would increase tourism, connectivity, and business. The new airport in Shivamogga will be opened by the prime minister in February.This also happens to be the day before B S Yediyurappa's 80th birthday. Yediyurappa's eldest son Raghavendra tweeted: "The dream of an airport in Shivamogga is coming reality! The Malnad region's change will begin with the Shivamogga Airport, which will become more than just an airport." The Lok Sabha member said that the airport, which features a terminal in the shape of a lotus, will meet the needs of both the residents of Shivamogga and the whole state of Karnataka. According to him, it would enable lakhs of young people get jobs and give their ambitions wings. He also added that companies, particularly those related to information technology, tourism, and the dairy industry, will greatly benefit.""This ambitious project has been realised in a record time thanks to the leadership of PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji and the efforts of our Double Engine Sarkar," Raghavendra remarked. Yediyurappa and his family reside in the Shivamogga district, despite the fact that Bookanakere, in the Mandya district, is where he was born. Yediyurappa has made the announcement that he is leaving electoral politics. The former chief minister's farewell address at the Karnataka assembly was earlier retweeted by PM Modi, who stated: "As a worker of the BJP, I found this speech extremely encouraging." This represents the morals of our party. That will undoubtedly motivate more party employees.
