Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K.Stalin on Thursday urged the Central
government to sign an air transport bubble agreement with Singapore and
Malaysia.
In a letter to the Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya
M. Scindia, the chief minister said that Tamils having permanent
residentship of Singapore and Malaysia and others who had visited India
during pandemic period are facing hardship for their return journey due
to non-availability of direct flight services.
People have to
travel through Dubai, Doha and Colombo which is causing serious
inconvenience and financial burden as they have to pay more air charges
and travel long distances, he said.
In the absence of a temporary
Air Transport Bubble agreement between India and Singapore and
Malaysia, he said the travel business is being cornered by other foreign
airlines like Qatar Airways, Emirates and Srilankan Airlines.
"Hence,
I request you to make a temporary Air Transport Bubbles agreement with
Singapore and Malaysia at the earliest, for providing temporary airline
services and resolve the difficulties faced by the Tamil diaspora in
Singapore and Malaysia," Stalin said.
