Aviation, allied units to come up at Bhogapuram

Vizianagaram: Union Minister for Civil Aviation P Ashok Gajapathi Raju said that establishing an airport only to transport the passengers will not benefit society.

Unless the allied industries like a repairing centre, maintenance of aircraft, other infrastructure were established here, only an airport cannot provide jobs to the youth, he added Participating in the various programmes held here on Tuesday, the Minister said that the aviation industry was spending thousands of crores of rupees annually on maintenance and repairing of aircraft.

However, he said that those facilities are only at Dubai, Singapore and Sri Lanka and the Indian aviation sector is forced to go those places for these services. Now we are thinking to provide those facilities and infrastructure at Bhogapuram airport and trying to gain more income and provide jobs for the youth of this area.
Even cargo aviation is also one of major job provider and such services to be started from here," the Minister added. He said that provision of increasing of Assembly seats was mentioned in AP State Bifurcation Bill and again we need not send any resolution to the union government.
