UDAN to connect 56 unserved airports: Arun Jaitley
UDAN TO CONNECT 56 UNSERVED AIRPORTS AND 31 UNSERVED HELIPADS: ARUN JAITLEY
(Video Courtesy: DD News)
As many as 56 unserved airports and 31 unserved helipads will be connected under the government's regional air connectivity scheme, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said today.
Presenting the Budget for 2018-19, Jaitley also said that the government has proposed expansion of airport capacity by more than five times to handle a billion trips a year under a new initiative.
"In the last three years, the domestic air passenger traffic grew at 18 per cent per annum and our airline companies placed orders for more than 900 aircraft," he said.
The regional air connectivity scheme or UDAN (Ude Desh ka Aam Nagrik) launched last year seeks to connect unserved and under-served airports as well as make flying more affordable for the masses.
The finance minister said that UDAN "shall connect 56 unserved airports and 31 unserved helipads across the country", adding that operations have already started at 16 such airports.
"Sarkar ki iss pahal se hawai chappal pehnne wale nagrik bhi hawai jahaj mein yatra kar rahe hain (With this initiative, people wearing slippers are also travelling in aircraft)," Jaitley said.
With regard to expanding airport capacity, Jaitley said balance sheet of AAI would be leveraged to raise more resources for funding the expansion plans.
State-owned Airport Authority of India (AAI) manages 124 airports.
"Infrastructure is the growth driver of the economy. Our country needs massive investments, estimated to be in excess of Rs 50 lakh crore, in infrastructure to increase growth of GDP, connect and integrate the nation with a network of roads, airports, railways, ports and inland waterways and to provide good quality services to our people," Jaitley said.

AIRPORT CAPACITY TO JUMP 5 TIMES TO 1 BILLION TRIPS PER YEAR SOON: FINANCE MINISTER ARUN JAITLEY
(Video Courtesy: DD News)
India's airport capacity will increase by 5 times, facilitating 1 billion air trips a year in the next few years, finance minister Arun Jaitley in his speech Thursday presenting the government's latest fiscal budget for 2018-19.
The state-run Airports Authority of India currently operates 124 airports. There are 6 additional privately run airports.
The surge will primarily be pushed by the Narendra Modi government's regional connectivity scheme also called UDAN (Ude Desh ka Aam Nagrik), which seeks to air connect India's small towns at affordable
"Ab hawai chappal pehnne wale bhi hawai jahaaz ki yatra kar rahe hain" (Now even people wearing hawai chappals are flying in aircraft), quipped Jaitley, perhaps in a comment on how the UDAN scheme aspires to make the common man fly.
He said 56 new airports and 31 new helipads will be connected under the UDAN scheme and added already 16 airports are part of it.
The UDAN scheme has completed its second round of bidding and already resulted in the entry of at least four new carriers in the Indian skies, including the reborn Air Deccan, owned by GR Gopinath.
IndiGo, SpiceJet, Jet Airways and Air India's regional unit Alliance Air are the latest to get into the scheme.
Under UDAN, the government aspires to connect far flung towns like Jalgaon, Maharashtra, Kopal, Hosur in Karnataki, Burnpur and Cooch Behar West Bengal and Azamgarh in UP at fares under Rs 3,000.
