Earlier, there were separate terminals for national and international flights. Given the rush of passengers, a temporary terminal was set up on the right side of the airport for international passengers.

Check-in, security, immigration, and customs checks were conducted there.  However, henceforth, passengers will be sent to the main terminal.

On the other hand, the expansion work of the airport is going at a brisk pace. As the works are progressing, the development is very likely to be completed by 2023.

RGIA’s initial capacity was 1.2 crore passengers per annum, which went up to 2.1 crore in 2019 (pre-covid). The airport is currently undergoing a major expansion that will raise its capacity to 3.4 crore passengers per annum.
