The centre on Friday announced draft aviation policy aimed at popularizing air travel among people. The draft proposes to improve air connectivity among smaller cities. Airlines will not be allowed to charge more than 2500 rupees for one hour flight between two small cities. As per the new draft, about 300 airports and air strips in smaller cities could be operationalized. The draft says the government will provide money for it by setting up a special fund. To boost the aviation sector, the draft proposes tax incentives to airlines by giving them custom exemption on aviation fuel. The policy aims to bring India to third position from the current 10th position in the global aviation sector.
