Director General of Nepal Civil Aviation Authority Pradeep Adhikari has said that Bhairahawa Airport will operate if flights are regulated by promoting Lumbini. He expressed this opinion in the third session of 'Lumbini's Power: International Flight' organized by Kantipur Media Group on Wednesday.
'Let's promote Lumbini and regulate flights, Bhairahawa airport will operate,' the official said. Stating that it is necessary to stop the flight to Kathmandu and come to Bhairahawa, he said that if the national traffic is regulated, the country's Kathmandu, Pokhara and Bhairahawa airports can operate.
'traffic forecasting is done to see how much traffic will come. The increase in traffic depends on the increase in gross domestic product,' said the official. 'We have to regulate the traffic. Traffic is also regulated abroad. Turkey has banned the capital's airport by building Istanbul Airport. He informed that more than 11 crores are being served every year.
'Traffic is a country's wealth. If it is regulated, all three airports will operate, he said. '80 percent of the people who go to labor are from the Terai region. If we calculate Narayanipari, it is 70 percent.'
Although transportation, hotels, and food are all expensive, they are forced to come to Kathmandu, the official said. The visa center is in one place and the training center is in another. Our people have had to endure a lot of hardships,' he said. The official emphasized on how to create a
business. There are 53 million Buddhists worldwide. 50 percent of them are in China," he said, "but 147,000 people come to Lumbini every year. That too from India.'
Although four million people would come to see the broken nose of Buddha in Cambodia, only 147,000 people would come to see the place where Buddha was born, the official said. "By promoting Lumbini, one million Buddhists can be brought," he said.
When he asked the representative of Georgia why the flight was not held in Bhairahawa, the official said that he got the answer that there was no visa center. He mentioned that regulation and restriction are the only solution, questioning why the private sector would move forward when access to government employees is difficult.
