Name Jammu Airport after Maharaja Hari Singh: Karan to PM

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, July 10: Senior Congress leader and former Member of Parliament Dr Karan Singh has urged the Prime Minister Narendra Modi to name Jammu Airport as Maharaja Hari Singh Airport.
“There has been a long standing demand from the people of Jammu that the Jammu Airport should be named after Maharaja Hari Singh in whose time it was constructed and used by the State plane”, Dr Karan Singh said in a letter addressed to the Prime Minister.
“I strongly urge that this should be done as it would be a fitting tribute to the man who not only introduced a number of social welfare and developmental measures in the State but also signed the Instrument of Accession on October 26, 1947”, the senior Congress leader said.
