Answer given by the minister

THE MINISTER OF CIVIL AVIATION ( SHRI SHARAD YADAV )

(a) and (b) :- Airports Authority of India has provided required runway lights and approach lights for covering night operations through Bhavnagar airport. However, there has been no demand for night operations through this airport. The fittings, etc have therefore been removed and kept in safe custody to avoid pilferage. These fittings can be refixed at a short notice.
