The Ministry of Civil Aviation on Tuesday issued an advisory asking all airlines and airports operators to consider playing Indian music in their flights and terminal premises.
This comes after several renowned artists, singers and musicians including Kailash Kher, Anu Malik, Malini Awasthi and Sonal Mansingh, under the aegis of the Indian Council for Cultural Relations (ICCR) has requested Union Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia to make it mandatory that only Indian classical or instrumental music be played in flights being operated in India and at airports in the country to connect people emotionally with the country’s traditions.
