New Delhi: The new civil aviation policy, which is in the advanced stage of finalisation would provide a long-term road map for the sector's growth, Civil Aviation Minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju said.
"Government is in the process of developing a comprehensive Civil Aviation Policy which shall provide a long term road map for the aviation sector...the growth of aviation and tourism industry also has significant ripple effects on other segments, particularly in the services and hospitality sectors", Raju said while inaugurating the 8th International Conference on Indian Civil Aviation & Tourism,' organised here by Assocham.
Noting that aviation and tourism have an inter-dependent relationship, the minister said that the tourism market grows by itself with new connections and a popular destination attracts the operation of more flights.
