There is no hope of starting sea-plane service from the riverfront of Ahmedabad to Kevadiya yet, in such a situation, the state government has appealed to the central government to start sea-plane service at a total of 6 places and to provide two sea-planes to Gujarat. . A demand has also been made for seaplane service from Sabarmati Riverfront to Statue of Unity with immediate effect.
State Civil Aviation Minister Purnesh Modi said that the Center and the state government are continuously making efforts for the sea-plane facilities in Gujarat at places like Ahmedabad Riverfront, Kevadiya, Shetrunji Dam near Palitana, Saputara Lake, Mahesana Gharoi Dam, and Ukai Dam in Surat. . The first sea-plane facility in the state was started from the Ahmedabad riverfront, but after the sea-plane went for repair, there is no sea-plane in Gujarat yet.
Bhupendrasinh Chudasama, who handled the civil aviation department in the then Rupani government of the state. Had written a letter to the Union Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia demanding Rs 120 crore to buy seaplanes in Gujarat. But now the new government is due to a change of leadership. I am asking again. State Civil Aviation Minister Purnesh Modi said that he would try to take a decision on the demand for seaplanes with immediate effect. The Airport Authority of India had decided last year. Those water aerodromes would be built at Sabarmati Riverfront, Kevadiya, Gharoi Dam, and Tapi in Gujarat for seaplanes.
Deesa Air Strip should be started with immediate effect so that the people of North Gujarat get the benefit of aviation services along with other cities. Therefore the land acquisition has been recommended to the Center. Similarly to the flight project
It has also been recommended for the construction of new cold storages to provide drainage facilities for vegetables and fruits. Along with this, facilities should also be available to the people for the greenfield airport of Rajkot. Hence to connect Aviation Park with a taxi link to Keshod, Airstrip to address the problem of parking facility under UDAN service has also been recommended to the Center.
