Rasgobindpur now under UDAN scheme

Sunday, 20 June 2021 | PNS | BALESWAR

The abandoned and dilapidated British-time Rasgovindpur airstrip in Mayurbhanj district has been included under the Ude Desh Ka Aam Nagrik (UDAN) scheme.

This was intimated by Union Minister Civil Aviation Hardeep S Puri to Union Minister Pratap Chandra Sarangi in response to the latter’s request for construction of an airport at Rasgovindpur.

The communiqué stated that the airstrip Amardaroad (Rasgobindapur)  is included in the tentative  list of un-served airports  under the UDAN document.

However, no bid has been received so far under UDAN for commencement of Regional Connectivity Scheme (RCS) flights. The routes between Bhubaneswar-Amardaroad have been included in  the special round of bidding  under the UDAN 4.1.

UDAN scheme is demand driven and development of regional  air connectivity routes are left to market forces. If any airline submits a bid for operation of RCS flight from Amardaroad, the same would be considered as per the scheme document, the communiqué added.
