Heli Services Launched to Enhance Air Connectivity in Uttarakhand

In a significant step towards improving air connectivity in Uttarakhand, Chief Minister Shri Pushkar Singh Dhami virtually inaugurated helicopter services from Dehradun to Nainital, Bageshwar, and Mussoorie. The launch marks a crucial milestone in enhancing regional transportation, particularly benefiting tourism and emergency services in remote areas.

Under the leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, the initiative aims to strengthen air connectivity across the state. The newly introduced heli services are expected to provide a major boost to the tourism sector, facilitating easier access to popular destinations while also offering a lifeline to residents in remote regions during emergencies.

Currently, helicopter services have been initiated from 12 heliports across Uttarakhand, with plans to extend operations from six additional heliports in the near future. This expansion reflects the state government’s commitment to improving infrastructure and accessibility for both residents and visitors.

The introduction of these services is expected to contribute significantly to the state’s economy by attracting more tourists and ensuring swift medical and logistical support in hard-to-reach locations. With continued efforts towards strengthening air connectivity, Uttarakhand is poised to set new benchmarks in regional aviation and tourism development.
