The government will assess the “pros and cons” of allowing airport operators to own stakes in airlines and adopt a balanced approach, Civil Aviation Minister K Rammohan Naidu said. He stressed the need for more airlines to meet rising travel demand, while noting that no decision has been taken on the proposal. Naidu also said India should aim for more than 350 airports and at least five airlines operating 100 aircraft each.
