Senior Congress leader Karan Singh wants the new terminal building in Jammu airport to be named after his father, Hari Singh, who ruled the erstwhile princely state before it acceded to the Union of India on various conditions.
The Hindu reported that in a letter to Jammu and Kashmir Lt. Governor Manoj Sinha, Mr. Singh wrote that it was his father who built the airport for his personal use and it was used by the royal family for many years. He made a similar request to the Civil Aviation Minister.
