Govt to weigh Adani airline plan cautiously over airport-airline conflict concerns

The government is carefully considering the Adani Group's request to start an airline, which could impact competition. There are concerns regarding the conflicts of interest due to cross ownership of airports and airlines. Existing airlines have opposed any relaxation of restrictions that could favor a single company like Adani. The Ude Desh ka Aam Nagrik scheme aims to boost regional connectivity by making air travel more accessible.
