New Delhi [India], February 28 (ANI): Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MP Raghav Chadha on Friday celebrated a major win for affordable food at airports and praised the Chennai and Kolkata airports' move to set up an affordable canteen.
This development comes after Chadha raised concerns over expensive food and beverages at airports during the winter session of Parliament.
"A small spark can light up the darkest skies... First Kolkata, now Chennai! Glad to see affordable food canteens being set up at Airports. Grateful to everyone who supported my demand for affordable food and drinks at airports. Congratulations to each one of you - every drop together makes the ocean rise. I shall continue to raise issues of public interest. Keep sending me your suggestions...," the AAP MP posted on X.
Chadha had highlighted the issue of overpriced food items, citing examples like water bottles costing Rs 100 and tea priced at Rs 200-250. He had asked the government to introduce affordable canteens at airports.
The Ministry of Civil Aviation has since launched the Udaan Yatri Cafe as a pilot project, offering affordable food options to travellers.
The union government took his demand seriously and introduced the 'Udaan Yatri Cafe', which was first inaugurated at Kolkata's Dum Dum Airport. (ANI)
