Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's pre wedding festivities have created a huge buzz in Jamnagar as luminaries from around the world set foot to this vibrant city. To cater to the requirements of the foreign guests, Jamnagar Airport has been declared an international airport for 10 days. According to media reports, the Indian Air Force has granted temporary international status to the Jamnagar Airport from February 25 to March 1. This comes amid the three-day festivity in Jamnagar to be attended by the who's who from the country and abroad.

In addition, the Union government’s Ministry of Health, Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Home Affairs have pressed in resources to set up a Custom, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) facility at the airport.

Congress national spokesperson Dr. Shama Mohamed questioned this and alleged discrimination.

Taking to X, she wrote, "Jamnagar airport is a defence airport. But it gets international status for Anant Ambani’s pre-wedding bash. 3 union ministries have been assigned to the task. The Airport passenger building has been expanded & toilets have been renovated. Kannur Airport which started operations in 2018 still does not have Point of Call ( no foreign airlines can operate). Isn't this discrimination @narendramodi?"
