re: Latest news about Jeypore Airport
The callous and lethargic attitude of our local politicians have taken a heavy toll on the development plans of Jeypore region. The airstrip at Jeypore was built in the year 1962 and by now it should have been a key air connectivity centre in the tribal hinterland. 25 years back Vayudoot airlines conducted regular flights from Bhubaneswar, Vishakhapatnam and Raipur and now there's no service thanks to our shameless politicians. By now there should have been at least a daily flight each from BBSR, Vizag and Raipur given the number of people travelling to those places on a daily basis for business, trade and other official activities. The only train that plies between BBSR and Jyp is insufficient to handle the passengers and generally overcrowded. Hence it is imperative that the airstrip at Jeypore should be developed immediately to handle at least three daily flights so that people from the region and also the neihbouring Chhatisgarh, could benefit immensely.
