Civil Aviation Min holds discussions on air cargo industry issues

The Civil Aviation Ministry Wednesday held discussions with various stakeholders on issues related to air cargo industry.

The meeting was chaired by Minister of State for Civil Aviation Jayant Sinha, the ministry said in a tweet.

The ministry is working on an air cargo policy to tap the potential of air cargo services in the country. India is one of the fastest growing domestic aviation markets in the world.

"The government is working to create efficient supply chains ie making globally-competitive industry based in India," the ministry said in the tweet.

Earlier this month, Sinha said that various areas, including the nature of demand, supply and cargo capabilities of other countries, would be looked at while preparing the air cargo policy.

SpiceJet has launched dedicated air cargo services.
