If the Government of Uttarakhand desires to launch services of Chardham Yatra (base Dehradun), Pawan Hans would endeavour to meet their requirement by providing helicopter on longterm lease to the State Government, Pawan Hans has informed.
However, Pawan Hans has been providing helicopter services in the state for pilgrims visiting Kedarnath Dham every year during yatra seasons. In addition, charter services are being provided from Dehradun for Badrinathji Dham and Char Dham Yatra as per demand for charter helicopter.
This information was given by Minister of State for Civil Aviation, Dr Mahesh Sharma in the Rajya Sabha recently.
