“In my capacity as President of TAAI, I think the government is taking unilateral decisions. They certainly need to set up a joint working group and consult with us while forming policies that affect tourism. Postponing the ban on international travel, month after month, is detrimental to the entire industry. Currently, there is a need to revive the industry and not make it suffer more by monopoly of air bubbles, high fares and complicated processes & routing.”
- Jyoti Mayal, President, TAAI
