The Airports Authority of India (AAI) has launched an 'Art Gallery of Unsung Heroes' at Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport in Kolkata. This initiative is part of the Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav and Har Ghar Tiranga celebrations, aimed at spotlighting lesser-known figures who contributed significantly to India's freedom movement.

The gallery was inaugurated by airport director PR Beuria in the presence of senior AAI officials and representatives from CISF, customs, immigration, airlines, and the Kalyanmayee, AAI Women Welfare Association. It features artistic tributes through paintings, sketches, and narratives that honor the legacy of these unsung heroes.
