More than 150 more operational airports would come up across India in
coming few years including three airports in J&K, promised union
minister Jayant Sinha, during his visit to Srinagar on Thursday.
The Aviation industry in India, Sinha said would soon be one of the
biggest sectors in India, and it is already fetching revenue almost
equal to Indian Railways and Telecom Industry.
In an attempt to boost tourism sector in Valley, Sinha said that direct
flights to cities like Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Chennai and Kolkata would
also be made operational.
Sinha was talking to young entrepreneurs in Srinagar at a function
organized by Foundation for Resource Development and Education led by
BJP leader Khalid Jehangir. J&K finance minister Haseeb Drabu also
addressed the gathering.
