The Kerala govt has approached the aviation ministry for permission to start an Airlines operation.

With a huge immigrant population in the Gulf, the Kerala Govt wants to start an international flight to the Gulf.

Looks like they don’t have the pre-requisites like the minimum operations of 20 aircrafts and to be in business for a minimum of 5 years, but they have been looking for an exception.

Why don’t they just lobby with the govt to allow more flight by the private operators?
