Vijayawada: The Andhra Pradesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry Federation (APCCIF) has appealed to the Airports Authority of India (AAI) to provide connectivity from Vijayawada (Gannavaram) airport to Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Kolkata, Bhubaneswar, Pune and Aurangabad to make it convenient for a sizeable population which travels to those cities from the Andhra Pradesh Capital region, to reach those destinations.
The AAI would also do well to take urgent steps for providing connectivity to Dubai/ Abu Dhabi, Singapore/Malaysia, Australia, Bangkok and London/Amsterdam to cater to the requirements of the huge NRI population of this region that has settled down in U.S.A, Europe, Australia and the Middle East.
APCCIF Executive Director P. Bhaskar Rao has in a letter to the Executive Director (Marketing) of AAI stated that population of the Capital city was likely to grow to three million by 2020 from the present 1.5 million and fortunately cities like Guntur with about 0.5 million population and towns like Eluru, Gudivada, Machilipatnam, Tenali, Mangalagiri, Bhimavaram and Nuzvid with a total population of another million are in a close range of 60 to 70 kilometres from the airport.
