Tezzbuzz Desk- Preparations for major changes in India’s aviation sector have begun. Adani Group has announced an investment of around ₹90,000 crore to ₹1 lakh crore to develop and expand the country’s airport infrastructure over the next five years. This mega plan aims to make air travel in India more modern, faster and convenient.

New flights started from Mundra Airport

Under this ambitious plan, commercial flights for general passengers have also been started from Mundra Airport in Gujarat. With the help of Star Air, direct flights have started from here to major cities like Mumbai and Goa.

Adani Airport Holdings Director Jeet Adani shared information about this entire plan during the inauguration of the new terminal of Mundra Airport.

Better connectivity from Mundra

Mundra, which is a major industrial area, was suffering from limited air connectivity till now. With the launch of new flight services, passengers will now get the benefit of faster and easier travel with fewer stoppages.

In the initial phase, regional flights have been started from Mundra to Mumbai, Goa, Surat and Hindon. In the coming time, Ahmedabad will also be connected to this network.

This connectivity has been possible under the government’s ‘UDAN’ scheme, which is expected to boost both tourism and trade in the Kutch region.

₹1 lakh crore 5 year master plan

This investment by Adani Group is being considered a big step towards making the country’s airport infrastructure world class. Under this scheme, existing airports will be expanded. New technology and features will be included. The experience of passengers will be improved. The new terminal of Mundra Airport is part of this vision, which has been completed in record time.

Preparation for operation of large aircraft

The runway of Mundra Airport is capable of handling aircraft such as A320 and Boeing 737. At present, regional flights have been started here, but in future it will also be possible to operate narrow-body large aircraft here.

With ample land available around the airport, prospects for future expansion are also strong. With this, this area can develop as a multi-modal logistics and business hub.

Keep an eye on 11 new airports

Adani Group does not want to be limited to just the existing airports. The government may soon start the bidding process for privatization of 11 new airports.

Jeet Adani has indicated that the company will actively participate in the process. Although it is not certain how many of these airports the group will get the management of, the aim is to strengthen its stake in India’s aviation economy.

This mega investment by Adani Group can bring a big change in India’s aviation sector. With better connectivity, modern infrastructure and new technology, the face of the country’s airports is expected to completely change in the coming years.
