Mumbai: India Inc. and various stakeholders on Wednesday welcomed the Indian government's new civil aviation policy which will permit carriers fly abroad, promote affordable regional connectivity and boost cargo operations.
Terming it as 'outstanding', FICCI's Civil Aviation Committee co-chairman Palash Roy Chowdhury said it's a progressive policy-framework towards ensuring a safe and sustainable development of the aviation sector in India.
"The comprehensive, well-thought-out policy will pave the way for a balanced aviation growth in the country. It will help in stimulating growth and competitiveness of Indian aviation sector when implemented effectively, make flying more affordable for domestic flyers and India more accessible to international travellers", added Roy Chowdhury.
Asocham Secretary General D.S. Rawat termed the policy as "a turning point" which would help attract more investments which had become quite viable after a sharp correction in fuel prices.
