Air services will reach remote areas – Scindia
Union Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia further said that we want regional air connectivity to increase under our UDAN scheme and air services should be taken to far-flung areas. For this, a policy is being made to use small planes and helicopters. He said that in the last eight months, Indore has been connected to 21 cities of the country by air and the number of weekly flights from the local airport has increased from 308 to 445.
Efforts are on for direct flight from Indore to Sharjah – Scindia
