Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav has said that Madhya Pradesh has established a leading position in the country’s aviation sector. With the launch of the Rewa–Delhi–Rewa air service today, new doors of development are opening for the Vindhya region. The area which once lacked railway facilities now witnesses the beginning of an air service. Earlier, a journey from Rewa to Delhi used to take about 15 hours, but now the distance will be covered comfortably in approximately two hours. Residents of Vindhya can now proudly say that Delhi is no longer far away. The Chief Minister said that Vindhya is an important industrial and religious center of the country. The region, rich in mineral resources and industries, is also spiritually connected with Maa Sharda Dham in Maihar and Chitrakoot. This air service will enhance connectivity to Bandhavgarh National Park, Panna National Park, Khajuraho and Amarkantak. It will prove to be a boon for industrial and mining activities, pilgrimage tourism, and wildlife destinations.
