Wildlife rescue center near Noida International Airport to be completed by Feb 2026. Built by YEIDA for ₹3.4 crore, it will house and treat animals affected by the airport.

It will take roughly five more months to finish the rescue facility for wildlife impacted by Noida International Airport. The center, which will be run by the Forest Department and constructed by the Yamuna Authority, should be finished by February. The project, which would cost Rs 34 million, will have amenities including animal housing and a medical facility.

The wildlife rescue center for animals impacted by Noida International Airport is currently under development and should be finished in February 2026, which is five months from now. The Forest Department will run the facility, which is being created by the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA).

The Wildlife Institute of India (WII) suggested the center’s creation after researching the environmental effects of the airport. Proposals for the rehabilitation and conservation of 258 blackbucks, 176 sarus cranes, and other species were made as a result of the study, which was carried out within a 10-kilometer radius.

The Rs 3.4 crore rescue center is being constructed in Sector 17, close to Rajpura village. It occupies ten hectares of land, of which five are YEIDA-allocated and the remaining five are Forest Department property.

Construction: On the property that YEIDA has supplied, permanent structures are being erected. This consists of staff and a resident veterinarian’s living quarters, a treatment room, a medical center, and sheds.
