Answer:

(a) 1 and 2 only

Explanation:

  • Donyi Polo Airport: This is a Greenfield project. Donyi Polo Airport, located in Arunachal Pradesh, was inaugurated in recent years as a new airport developed from scratch, thus qualifying as a Greenfield project.

  • Kushinagar International Airport: This is a Greenfield project. Kushinagar International Airport in Uttar Pradesh was also developed as a new airport from scratch to facilitate international tourism and pilgrimage.
