Jaipur: The first flight connecting Sriganganagar with Jaipur was launched on Tuesday. The flight was flagged off by Rajasthan chief minister Vasundhara Raje from the state hanger at Jaipur International Airport. The low-cost flight between Sriganganagar and Jaipur will be operated by the Supreme Airlines.

The flight will leave for Sriganganagar twice a day. The first flight will take off at 7 am and the second one at 4 pm. The same flight will return to Jaipur from Sriganganagar at 9 am and 6 pm. The one-way fare will be Rs 25,00.

Senior BJP leaders including party president Madan Lal Saini and Chandrashekhar also participated in the launch event.

Senior officials said that the flight will go a long way in enhancing the state capital’s connectivity with smaller cities and district headquarters. More such flights will be launched in the near future.

“A lot of people travel from Jaipur to Sriganganagar and vica versa for business. This flight will reduce the travel time to a great extent as it will only take half an hour. The flight’s fare is competitive,” said an official.
