It may be worth mentioning that Govt. of India has already granted International Airport status to Tulihal Airport, Imphal just before the Golden Myanmar`™s 1st spell last year. The expansion work of the Imphal Airport is taking up in full swing to overcome the technical challenges. The new global air route is a part of the bilateral air service agreement signed by India and Myanmar in 2012.
