To those who take subsidised UDAN flights to Kishangarh, the community welcomes them by collecting Rs 1,000 from within itself to increase tourism, Usha Padhee, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Civil Aviation said at an event.
Kishangarh airport began operations on 8 October 2018, under Ministry of Civil Aviation and Modi government’s flagship scheme UDAN — ‘Ude Desh ka Aam Nagrik’, which aims to boost regional connectivity at cheap airfares. The route is operated by budget carrier SpiceJet after the airline got rights to the route in phase 2 of UDAN bidding.
