Scindia made the comments in his virtual address at the two-day EU-India aviation summit. The summit will focus on EU-India air transport relations and the mutually shared challenges and opportunities of the two regions, such as the post-Covid recovery of air traffic, increasing sustainability, maintaining safety and the development of unmanned aircraft systems.
The summit will bring together top-level policy makers, industry executives and stakeholders from both the EU and India.
