The Jyotiraditya Scindia-led ministry late on Tuesday night said Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (CSMI) “suffers from congestion and excess capacity on its runways which inadvertently leads to air space congestion, where flights are forced to hover over the city for a long duration of around 40-60 minutes.”
