Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on Monday urged Prime Minister
Narendra Modi to instruct Air India (AI) authorities to begin flight
operations between the state's Jharsuguda city and Delhi.
In a
letter to the Prime Minister, Patnaik requested for having Veer Surendra
Sai Airport at Jharsuguda as a stopover for one of the national
carrier's flights from Bhubaneswar to Delhi.
"Jharsuguda is
located strategically in the industrial and mining belt of Odisha, and
is a critical point of connectivity to western Odisha. During the
inauguration of Jharsuguda Airport on September 22, I had offered full
support of state government for running of commercial flights and had
requested for commencing Air India flight operations from Jharsuguda to
Delhi," he said in the letter.
Air Odisha had started flying operations under RCS-UDAN.
Unfortunately, it suspended its operations on November 6, 2018, without any valid reason, said the Chief Minister.
