“We are pleased to start operations from Itanagar, which will be our 10th destination in the northeast. Over the last few years, IndiGo has focused on increasing accessibility in the northeast and now connects seven out of eight states in the region.”

Scindia noted that the northeast’s air connectivity has improved and that more flights will be run to connect the area with other locations.
He added that there are now 16 airports in the northeast, up from nine in 2013–2014.
The minister added that initiatives are being taken to turn the northeastern states into a growth engine.
