The Krishi UDAN Scheme, designed to support the agricultural sector, facilitates cost-effective air logistics from Northeast, hilly, and tribal regions. It currently covers 58 airports, focusing on 25 priority airports and 33 others across India.
Looking ahead, the government has committed to developing 50 new airports over the next five years. This includes new Greenfield airports in Bihar, expansion of Patna Airport, and development of a brownfield airport at Bihta to meet future demand and support regional growth.
