Machilipatnam: Union Civil Aviation Minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju Thursday said new National Civil Aviation Policy is likely to be out next month.
"At present, we are working on the policy which is likely to be out next month. We have received many suggestions on the draft policy and we are hopeful that new policy will be out in April," Raju said.
He was speaking to reporters after addressing a private function here.
The minister said the country needs four modern airports, two on West coast and as many on East coast.
"At present, we have only three modern airports that have parallel runways at Delhi, Bangalore and Hyderabad and the fourth one is coming up in Vishakhapatnam. With the size of a country like India we need more modern airports, at least two on the West coast and two on the East coast," Raju said.
