Non-resident Keralites want the Kerala government to go ahead with the Air Kerala project without waiting for the Civil Aviation permission to fly overseas.Dubai-based DM Healthcare Group CEO Dr Azad Moopan said getting overseas license will be easy after the launch of the airline. Dr Moopan said he himself was ready to contribute to the kitty if the government came up with a concrete proposal. However, he refused to quantify the amount.

In fact, a NRK organization from UAE even expressed their readiness to mobile Rs3 billion for the project if it was launched in association with a foreign airline.However, Chief Minister Oommen Chandy ruled out any such collaboration. He said that his government would continue to mount pressure on the federal government to relax the norms. “I am confident the Civil Aviation Ministry will yield finally as the NRKs are united behind the project”.
