    Solution

    It was launched as a RCS under the Ministry of Civil Aviation in 2016. Its objectives are: To develop the regional aviation market. To provide affordable, economically viable and profitable air travel on regional routes to the common man even in small towns. The scheme envisages providing connectivity to un-served and underserved airports of the country through the revival of existing air-strips and airports. The scheme is operational for a period of 10 years. Under-served airports are those which do not have more than one flight a day, while unserved airports are those where there are no operations. Financial incentives from the Centre, state governments and airport operators are extended to selected airlines to encourage operations from unserved and under-served airports, and keep airfares affordable.
