Hosting an array of activities related to trade and commerce, Rajkot has evolved as a hub of business ventures that operate nationally and internationally. Thereby, the traders and industrialists in the city have insisted on amplified means of connectivity to different parts of the country for a long time. Now, it is anticipated that this new addition will not only boost business but will also be conducive to enhancing tourism for the state.
Currently, Rajkot offers direct air connectivity only to the cities of Delhi & Mumbai. It is noteworthy that the airport in Rajkot also welcomes travellers from the neighbouring towns of Morbi and Jamnagar. Now, the residents of all three districts shall be gifted with pleasant journeys to Goa. It is pertinent to acknowledge that such interventions have become a need of the hour given the quick-paced development that has enveloped most cities in India.
