Quote:More Odisha Routes In UDAN 4.1
By Tathya Correspondent - March 14, 2021

Bhubaneswar: Odisha will be greatly benefitted with the proposed Special Bidding under Regional Connectivity Scheme (RCS) Ude Desh Ka Aam Nagrik(UDAN) as several Routes in the State have been proposed for the bidding in UDAN 4.1.

These routes are Bhubaneswar to Utkela, Utkela to Bhubaneswar, Utkela to Raipur, Raipur to Utkela, Jeypore to Vishakhapatnam, Vishakhapatnam to Jeypore, Bhubaneswar to Amarda Road, Amarda Roda to Bhubaneswar, Bhubaneswar to Rangeilunda, Rangeilunda to Bhubaneswar.
...
In case of Odisha, the State Government has requested for Bhubaneswar-Amarda Road and Bhubaneswar-Rangeilunda, officials say.

So both are being included in the UDAN 4.1 Bidding, said a senior official.
...
The Bid Document is uploaded on the Central Procurement portal of the National Informatics Centre inviting the bids from interested airlines.

The bidding process is expected to be completed by 6 weeks.

Quote:Three more airports – Rourkela, Jeypore and Utkela are being developed under the UDAN -4.

“There have been delays as far as Rourkela is concerned which initially had a licence for only small planes. The taxiway and apron are now being strengthened and restructured to ensure the safety of bigger aircraft,” said Padhee.

...

To expedite the process and make Rourkela Hockey World Cup 2023 ready, a joint inspection of the Rourkela Steel Plant (RSP)-owned airport was conducted by officials from the Airports Authority of India (AAI), Odisha Government officials, Alliance Air representatives and officials of Steel Authority of India Ltd (SAIL), RSP and Rourkela Airport in November last year.

“We expect it to be completed in next six months,” she added.

The joint secretary said that the DG Civil Aviation had inspected the Jeypore airport and submitted the observations. “It can operate small aircraft and there will be bidding for it,” she said.

Utkela in Kalahandi district, however, is still in the construction stage, she added.

On Odisha’s demand for an international airport in Puri, Padhee said that Bhubaneswar receives only narrow-body aircraft and a separate one can be built on a bigger scale near the Pilgrim Town for the long-range ones. “International airports are being built within 60 km distance. For instance, the Hindon Airport which is around 50 km from Indira Gandhi International Airport in New Delhi. London has multiple airports. This proposal has potential,” she said.

Padhee further added that this will also boost tourism in the state, allowing easy travel for people around the globe to one of the ‘Char Dhams’ of India.
