In light of recent discussions, several key challenges encountered by promoters in Puri have been brought to attention: 1) Clarity on AAI Approval for Sri Jagannath International Airport: It has been highlighted that clarity is needed from the relevant authorities, namely PKDA and AAI, regarding the necessity of clearance or NOC from AAI for the proposed Sri Jagannath International Airport. As AAI has not yet granted approval for the construction of the proposed airport, it is suggested that insistence on such approval be reconsidered. 2) Stalled Projects Due to AAI NOC and Temple Delay: Numerous projects in Puri are experiencing delays attributed to the requirement for AAI NOC and delays in obtaining Temple NOC. These setbacks result in signi icant losses for promoters, revenue losses for the state, and unemployment concerns. 3) Timely Granting of Temple NOC: It is advocated that Temple NOC be granted within a timeframe of 30 days to streamline the project implementation process and mitigate delays. These issues underscore the importance of addressing regulatory challenges to facilitate smoother project execution and promote economic growth in the region. Following members were unanimously nominated to the Governing Body of the newly installed City Chapter: President, Sri Ashis Kumar Satapathy, Vice President, Sri Srikant Kumar Dash General Secretary, Sri Saroj Kumar Panigrahy, Joint Secretary Sri Narasingha Tiadi & Sri Pramit Kumar Das Treasurer, Santosh Kumar Patra Executive Committee: Sri Ajay Agarwal & Sri Himanshu Sekhar Nayak & other 04 members elected as Executive Committee Member.
