udaan yatri cafe

• To address growing concerns over expensive food and beverages at airports, the Indian government has launched the 'Udaan Yatri Café' initiative.

• The project aims to provide affordable snacks to passengers, with the pilot project being launched at Kolkata's Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport.

• The initiative was proposed after Rajya Sabha MP Raghav Chadha raised the issue in Parliament, stressing the need to reduce the financial burden on air travellers.
