For a new policy of sustainable and orderly growth of aviation sector in the country, the Union Civil Aviation Ministry has prepared a white paper, the Rajya Sabha was told on March 22. To have a sustainable and orderly growth of the aviation sector, the Ministry has felt the need to spell out a long-term Civil Aviation Policy to address various issues related to the sector, Union Minister of State for Civil Aviation KC Venugopal said.
A consultation paper was prepared and placed on the Ministry website inviting comments of stakeholders. Based on the comments received from the stakeholders, a white paper on new civil aviation policy has been prepared, he said. Five sub groups have been formed to finalise the suggestions in the white paper before finalising the National Civil Aviation Policy.
However, there is no proposal to put this policy on 100 days agenda, Venugopal said.
