==Future development==
The finance minister of Haryana, while presenting the [[Government of Haryana]] 2018-19 budget in March 2018 announced that the funds have been allocated to extend the existing 3000 feet runway to 5000 feet and parking hangar for the spillover aircraft from [[Indira Gandhi International Airport|IGI Delhi airport]] will be constructed.<ref name=abhify19>[https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/chandigarh/live-updates-haryana-budget-2018/articleshow/63228377.cms haryana budgest 2018-19], [[Times of India]], 9 March 2018.</ref>

As of January 2019, construction of hangar is underway. Night landing facilities and hangar will also be built as airlines have approached the Haryana government to park their "Non-scheduled Air Operations" (NSOP) spillover aircarafts from the congested IGI airport at Delhi to Bhiwani and Narnaul airport. Consequently, all five existing government airports in Haryana will be developed to have runway of at least 5000 feet, night landing and parking hangars.<ref>[https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/haryana/all-five-airports-in-state-to-be-developed-expanded/710300.html All five airports in state to be developed expanded], The Tribune 8 Jan 2019.</ref>
