Imphal airport officials announced on November 15 that flight services between Imphal and Silchar will commence on November 24. Under the Modified UDAN scheme, Alliance Air will operate the flights with a frequency of twice a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This new service aims to improve regional air connectivity and make air travel more accessible to small towns.
UDAN, launched in 2016, seeks to make air travel affordable and enhance connectivity to tier-II and tier-III cities. Over the past five years, the scheme has extended subsidies and shifted funding to the government's exchequer.
