Bengaluru: The draft civil aviation policy, which is due to be released next month, will be geared to catapult India into becoming the third largest civil aviation market in the world, from its current place as the tenth largest.
Addressing delegates at the curtain-raiser of the Fifth International Exhibition and Conference on Civil Aviation — India Aviation 2016 — in Bengaluru on Tuesday, Civil Aviation Secretary, Government of India, R?N?Choubey said, “We are embarking on an interesting journey with the new policy, which will catapult India to become the third largest market the world over.”
The Indian skies saw 19 per cent growth in passengers from January to August this year, thanks to reasons such as dip in crude oil prices, among others. This was at a time when the global market itself was contending with problems of its own.
