Kuwait aspires to more flights with India

New Delhi: Kuwait is looking forward to enhance cooperation with India by increasing number of flights between the two friendly countries, Kuwaiti Ambassador to India Jassim Al-Najem said on Friday.
Al-Najem told KUNA after meeting with Indian Minister of State for Commerce and Industry and Minister of State for Civil Aviation Affairs Hardeep Singh Puri and delivering an official letter requesting to increase the number of seats between the two countries.
The previous agreement at this level between the two countries is limited to 12,000 seats per week, the ambassador said.
