Amritsar: The Union Government’s electronic-Tourist Visa (e-TV) facility at Sri Guru Ramdas Jee International Airport here has brought favourable results for international passengers alighting here. Between 30 and 40 international passengers are using the facility daily.

With this facility, the holy city joined the elite club of 16 airports in the country which have the e-visa facility at the entry points to India.
