“We thank you for the financial package of Rs 20 lakh crores to boost industry and the economy. As you will agree, that civil aviation is of paramount importance in today’s context and therefore it is extremely necessary to boost the aviation industry and restore normal operations at the earliest, which is crucial for the economy to stabilise,” the letter stated.
