The closure of Visakhapatnam’s old airport has left nearly 800 workers facing employment uncertainty.
Visakhapatnam MP M. Sribharat has urged the affected employees to consider the job opportunities currently available to them.
The staff were associated with various airport-related operations and services.
The shift of scheduled commercial flights to Bhogapuram has changed the employment landscape for these workers.
The MP advised them to make use of available employment options rather than wait indefinitely for alternative arrangements.
The issue has drawn attention to the impact of the airport transition on workers and their families.
The new airport is expected to create fresh employment opportunities as operations expand.
However, displaced workers are seeking suitable avenues to continue their livelihoods.
The MP’s appeal is aimed at helping affected employees transition into available jobs.
The development comes as Visakhapatnam enters a new phase in its aviation infrastructure.
The relocation of commercial operations marks a major change for the city’s aviation sector.
Ensuring employment opportunities for displaced workers remains an important part of managing the transition.
The issue highlights the need to balance infrastructure development with the livelihood concerns of existing airport workers.
