Khandu Calls for Enhanced Flight Connectivity from Donyi-Polo Airport

Arunachal Pradesh Chief Minister Pema Khandu has called on the central government to enhance flight connectivity from Donyi-Polo Airport in Itanagar. His appeal aims to improve regional air travel and bolster economic development in the northeastern state.

In his recent request, Khandu emphasised the need for more frequent and diverse flight options to and from the Donyi-Polo Airport. He highlighted that increased connectivity would not only facilitate better travel for residents but also attract more tourists and business investments to the region.

Currently, the airport serves as a crucial gateway for Arunachal Pradesh, but limited flight options restrict its potential. Khandu's call for action includes expanding routes and increasing the number of flights, which he believes will drive growth in tourism and economic activities.

The Chief Minister's push comes as part of a broader effort to improve infrastructure in Arunachal Pradesh. By enhancing air connectivity, Khandu envisions a more integrated and accessible region that can better support its residents and capitalise on its unique cultural and natural attractions.

The central government's response to Khandu's request will be pivotal in shaping the future of the Donyi-Polo Airport and, by extension, the economic landscape of Arunachal Pradesh. Enhanced flight services could play a significant role in transforming the region into a more connected and vibrant hub in northeastern India.
