Airport inside the jungle? Nepal’s greatest treasure are her jungles, animals, birds, nature. If airports replace this greatest attraction for travelers, it might as well happen that they stop to have interest to travel there anymore…
Planes passing many times a day, and the consequent increase in traffic to transport those crowds out and in the airport will force big highways and further depletion of the still lively jungles, adjacent to Parsa and Chitwan.
this is going to decrease population in kathmandu and traffic as well
that will be great for people living in terai region
