Civil aviation research centre to come up in Hyderabad

Hyderabad: A ₹250-crore Civil Aviation Research Organisation (CARO) will come up within 18 months at Begumpet in Hyderabad.
Laying the foundation stone for the CARO project to be implemented under the Airports Authority of India, Union Civil Aviation Minister Suresh Prabhu said the focus of the centre will be on pursuing inter-disciplinary solutions to improve the civil aviation sector. The Minister said, “The country’s civil aviation sector is growing at a hectic pace of over 20 per cent and we expect this growth momentum to continue. This would require significant improvement to the existing infrastructure and creation of new infrastructure to keep pace with the progress.”
The Government is in an advanced stage of finalisation of a cargo policy which will play a complementary role to the civil aviation policy. The idea is to use the airport infrastructure and vacant spaces in airport area in a more efficient manner and promote movement of cargo when there is less traffic, he said.
