In order to promote Agri-produce export, GoI has launched Krishi Udan Scheme, which provides waiver of landing & parking charges by AAI for Indian freighters & P2C (Passenger to Cargo aircraft).

The concession is available only if Agri-produce accounts for over 50% percent of total chargeable weight of cargo carried. Amritsar Sahib, Adampur, Bathinda, Pathankot, Chandigarh & Ludhiana airports are included in the Scheme.
India follows a very liberal Air Cargo Policy. Foreign &Indian carriers can operate scheduled international cargo flights from any point in India, including Amritsar Sahib &Chandigarh. Spicejet has also undertaken 14 Cargo flights on Delhi-Amritsar-Moscow route, since April 2020.
However, there was insufficient cargo aggregation at the Amritsar Sahib airport. I have requested the Secretary @MoCA_GoI to call a meeting on this issue & provide all necessary assistance to the State.
