Karnataka intends to build nine water aerodromes in order to improve connectivity and boost tourism in these locations. The administration thinks that developing the infrastructure will only require a minimal investment.
According to Infrastructure Development Minister V Somanna on Wednesday, the government has selected the Kali River, Byndur, Malpe, Mangaluru, Tungabhadra, KRS, Linganamakki, Almatti, and Hidkal reservoirs as prospective regions.
At a workshop the state government and the civil aviation ministry organised in Bengaluru to collect feedback for Karnataka’s proposed civil aviation policy, the Minister discussed some initiatives for improving regional connectivity.
