‘Need bigger cargo terminals & liberalised policies for seamless connectivity’

Dipen Lalsodagar, Deputy Director – Sales, Global Aviation Services said, “India can provide the best connectivity between Europe and the Far East geographically. India is able to convert several airports into numerous freight hubs because it has the most airports in South Asia and a constantly changing infrastructure. Multimodal operations can connect a large number of seaports. To achieve this vision, we need liberalised aviation policy for seamless connectivity, bigger cargo terminals which are technologically advance and with skilled manpower to handle huge volumes, good infrastructure for multimodal connectivity, liberalised customs regulations for international cargo transfer and single window documentation between sea and air connectivity. Airport infrastructure requires bigger and modern infrastructure and more skilled manpower, implementing paperless process is the need of the hour. Liberalised customs regulations to handle international transfers between airports and seaports.
