A new greenfield airport at Paradip and improvements to the airports in Jeypore, Dandabosh, Rangeilunda, Jamadarapali, and Tusara are among the Rs 328 crore allotted for civil aviation under B-MAAN.

There are also plans to expand the Biju Patnaik Aviation Centre in Dhenkanal and build a second international airport in Puri. Additionally, an airline cadet program will provide fully financed pilot training to ten native women.

Rs 320 crore for railways would improve communication amongst the state’s main areas. Furthermore, Rs 2,483 crore for mass transit network expansion and Rs 466 crore for road transport upgrades are included in the transport budget.

Bhubaneswar will be connected to Tirupati, Indore, Shirdi, Ayodhya, Hyderabad, and Bhilai by twelve new AC sleeper buses. Highways will be monitored by the Intelligence Enforcement Management System (IEMS), beginning with the Puri-Konark, Rameswara-Panikoili, and Bhubaneswar-Puri routes.
