New Delhi: There was a significant growth in domestic air traffic in July as compared to the air traffic in the same period last year, the civil aviation ministry claimed on Monday. Domestic air passenger traffic rose by 12.43 percent in July to 95.65 lakh from 85.08 lakh reported for the corresponding month of last year.
