The newly built Noida International Airport faced waterlogging after heavy rain, raising questions about drainage, infrastructure planning and the ability of India’s new mega projects to withstand extreme weather. In this video, we examine what happened at the ₹11,200 crore Noida International Airport and why water accumulated near the terminal and parking area after intense rainfall. We also look at similar rain-related incidents involving newly built infrastructure, including the Delhi Dehradun Economic Corridor and the Lucknow Kanpur Expressway. The Delhi Dehradun Economic Corridor witnessed a road surface cave-in after heavy rain, with the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) attributing the incident to localised water stagnation and a non-operational cross-drainage system at the site. Meanwhile, damage to the upper road surface of the Lucknow Kanpur Expressway also drew attention after heavy rainfall. #NoidaInternationalAirport #NoidaAirport #Infrastructure #Waterlog
