AAI to showcase UDAN scheme at R-Day parade

Chandigarh: In perhaps the first public projection of the Regional Connectivity Scheme (RCS), also known as UDAN, the Airports Authority of India (AAI) has planned to field a tableau on the scheme at the Republic Day parade in New Delhi.

UDAN is a sobriquet for the RCS that stands for ‘Ude Desh Ka Aam Nagrik’. The theme of the tableau is ‘Airspace management, airport infrastructure development and regional connectivity scheme’.

Sources said the AAI was in the process of identifying a partner that could conceptualise, design and fabricate the tableau along with providing artistes, musical background and sound systems on a turnkey basis.
A senior AAI official said the tableau was envisioned to be a grand spectacle and a unique creation, so that it could catch the attention of the viewers and showcase the achievements of the AAI.

While the RCS has a potential to target 486 airports, out of which a large number are unserved or non-operational, it has so far connected 42 airports, including many which are underserved. The number of well served airports in India is limited.
