UCADA to be registered under Companies Act

The Uttarakhand Civil Aviation Development Authority (UCADA) will be registered under the Companies Act. This decision was taken in the fifth meeting of the UCADA board of directors presided over by the chief minister Trivendra Singh Rawat on Tuesday.

Till now, the UCADA has been registered under the Societies Act which is presenting difficulties in the conduct of commercial activities.

Hence, the board of directors decided to get the authority registered under the Companies Act. In addition to this, the board also agreed upon purchase of double-engine helicopter. Regarding this, the chief minister has directed that a technical committee should be formed and all necessary technical aspects should be studied. Rawat said that there is need for expansion of helicopter services in the state.
