Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to intervene in the issue of rising air fares in the country, saying that it was not only causing hardship to non-resident Indians, but was also affecting revival of the tourism sector which is vital to the economy.
Besides the rising air fares, another issue which Vijayan drew the Prime Minister’s attention to was the Railways decision to abandon the Nemom Coaching Terminal project in Thiruvananthapuram.
The Kerala Chief Minister sought Modi’s intervention for reconsidering abandoning of the project and to instead ensure that it gets early approval.
