"IndiGo's Inaugural Flight to Ayodhya's New Airport Celebrated with Cake, Cheers, and 'Jai Shri Ram'"
IndiGo's inaugural flight to Ayodhya, soon after the city's airport was inaugurated by PM Modi, was dubbed "Pushpak vimaan" by passengers, referencing the mythological flying chariot from the Ramayana. Devotees from across India joined the flight, some carrying holy items, and chanted religious hymns, creating an electric atmosphere. Despite some passengers regretting paying higher fares due to early booking, the spiritual significance of the journey to the birthplace of Lord Ram and the first Tirthankar Rishabh Dev Ji overshadowed the cost concerns. Regular flights to Ayodhya by IndiGo and Air India Express are set to commence from January 6, connecting the city with major Indian metros.
