Lapses ground International flights from taking off/landing

Imphal: Whereas maximum efforts are being put in to introduce Imphal-Mandalay flight service ahead of the Manipur Sangai Festival, many lapses have been detected on the part of the State Government.
Although India and Myanmar signed an agreement for launching air connectivity between the two countries during Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh's visit to Myanmar last year, and the DGCA has given its consent for Myanmar based private airline Golden Myanmar to operate to and from Tulihal Airport, one cannot say that Tulihal Airport is ready for international flights, informed an official source.
As of now, Tulihal Airport does not have space required for an international airport.
