The 12th edition of the 5-day biennial air show will be held at IAF’s Yelahanka base on the city’s northern outskirts as before.
Instead of the Defence Exhibition Organisation which has been hosting the event over years, the state-run Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) will play a major role in organising the air show this time, said Mr Bhadauria
Responding to a question on who would flag off the mega show, Mr Bhadauria said that the PM Narendra Modi might inaugurate the show but the final call will be up to the Ministry of Defence.
