00:00Hello viewers, I am present right here at Airports Authority of India stall at

00:08Bharat Mandapam at IITF 2025. India is set to become the largest hub of

00:15aviation sector in the world and we have Sandeep Jha from Airports Authority of

00:21India. So welcome to ETV Bharat. So my first question is like you guys are

00:26taking an initiative to promote students as aviation sector need a skilled

00:32workforce also as our Minister has said we need when many more airports in the

00:36upcoming years what initiatives we are taking like for the students and this is

00:41the first time we come since the big way actually you have seen that I've talked

00:46to the people also the kids also that what do you see in aviation but how many

00:51professions are there in the aviation so they say they we have seen the pilot

00:55also and the aerospace these are the two provision which are moon more focused

00:58people want to go to that only so I said instead of that I'll show you who are the

01:04unsung hero who was managing the aircraft in the air we give safety to the

01:10aircraft we give direction to the aircraft and we tell them how to land how to do

01:14it so this has been done by the ATC console so we have the ATC console here

01:19right at the pavilion which gives you the feeding a live one hour recording is

01:24there to show each and everything there and you can you can hear the conversation

01:30between the air traffic controller and the aircraft pilot then we have got the

01:35fire department is here where we have put the fire equipments there we have got

01:42this specialized fire professional here so people can choose the fire as in a

01:47carrier for a firefighter as a carrier we have got several interactive consoles

01:53also which will help you to understand the AI better so this is this is how we

01:58have arranged this pavilion also we have a quiz quiz center also where we are

02:03asking about the little little things about the airport or the aircraft so

02:07people will get to know more about the aircraft and this I can show you the I

02:12can show you the we had made a replica of the runway here and then we may they

02:17are certain markings which are which are to be put up you can see the mark you can

02:22see the markings here this is 29 if you have a smartphone with you open the the open

02:30your phone and open your compass when you do the compass you can put it here in

02:36the compass you will see that this is 290 degree this is 290 degree so we have

02:44put 290 here 2 right here first two letters of this 2 9 here and if you go

02:49this this is a straight line so this is 180 degree straight away fine 180 degree is

02:54the straight line so this is 2 9 so that that end should be 1 1 1 1 1 0 so 2 90

03:00minus 180 is 1 1 0 so this is how the runway marking has been done to give you the

03:05exact location of this so there are tests if you have seen the Delhi airport we have

03:10got four runways there with every every runway has got different marking 270 280 290 like this so

03:17you can find out this is very interesting how the threshold is been marked with

03:21there so aircraft has to land by the time otherwise it will overshoot so there are so

03:26many things which we have to learn about the airplane and the mechanism of the flight

03:31how how we control the aircraft and we have got engineers also civil engineers

03:37electrical engineers they are giving giving shape to the aircraft airports a

03:42different type of airports are coming you know you know we are making the

03:45airports with the cultural heritage of the state so you can you can come you can

03:50come here I'll show you the actually the airport which is which is a

03:55a Trichrapalli airport which is of very very beautifully made I'll show you the

04:01airport this is the Trichrapalli airport and we this is this is how how you can

04:09see the the local things have been attached to it this is like fish fish fins so we

04:16have used the fish fins as the design of the airport

04:19here we have a quiz zone you can see we have a different different quiz attached to it

04:25there are different different questions and different set of questions has been uploaded

05:35people i'll request all the parents to come here and give their child a dream a dream career which

05:43they wanted to do because people have not seen this earlier now we wanted to give it to other

05:48people you need to show it to them that you can see it, understand it and make it become a career

05:53and make it become a career that you can make it become a career now we have talked about 9th class

06:00and we have asked them if you want to make a career what you want to make a career

06:04and they have told me that I have not decided to make a career decision

06:08so I have told them if you want to go to that career then you will get a career and believe me

06:13when they came out, they said that I want to be an ATC officer to make a career
