As per the available reports, the capital city of Assam is going to be connected with six international destinations. The Union civil aviation ministry is planning to make it happen under the UDAN Draft Scheme Document of International Air Connectivity Scheme.
One draft of this scheme has been uploaded over the official website of ministry and Airports Authority of India. According to this draft, Guwahati is likely to have direct air connectivity with Dhaka, Kathmandu, Yangon, Singapore, Bangkok, and Kuala Lumpur.
On Wednesday, Union civil aviation minister Suresh Prabhu also tweeted, “Presently, the states of Assam and Andhra Pradesh have come forward to participate under the scheme and have identified the routes. Under the scheme, the state governments will be responsible for funding the financial benefits. The scheme envisages providing monetary support, in the form of a subsidy per seat, for the unsold seats from the number of seats as a bid by the airline to make operations viable.”
