Agartala: Suriya Air, a newly floated private airline, plans to introduce services in India's northeast region from October with small 19-seater aircraft.
The airline is awaiting clearance from the civil aviation ministry before its flights connect Guwahati, Agartala, Silchar, Imphal, Aizwal, Lilabari, Bagdogra and Kolkata, an official said on Thursday.
Universal Empire, headed by NRI K Balachandran Nair and engaged in running various educational institutions and infrastructure development projects worldwide, had signed a technical agreement with Nepal's Buddha Airlines in November last year to float Surya Air. As a first step, Universal Empire is likely to procure five aircraft for the sector.
