After Alliance Air withdrew flight services connecting Bengaluru last month over a subsidy dispute, the Government has revived its bid to woo airlines for operating services through the Puducherry airport.
Setting November 30 as a cut-off date, the Government has invited Expressions of Interest in Public-Private Partnership mode from airline/rotary aircraft.
