Agra: An RTI query has found that in the last four years only 35 tourists arrived and departed from Agra airport on an average per day, compared to over 20,000 domestic and international tourists in total who arrive in Agra every day. In this period, 855 passenger aircraft landed in Agra. For this, the state government has already released Rs 18 crore.
