Govt needs to act responsibly here

Hi,
This is certainly a good news for Nagpurians - but still govt needs to handle this matter seriously.

In early 90s TATA wanted to start private Airlines, for which they wanted to license from Govt. Govt kept them waiting for 8 years - after which TATAs withdrew their plans - even though govt persuaded them. TATAs are real business people.

Govt needs to be become serious while handling top business houses, and provide required infrastructures to them.

Good Day
Vinay
