Aviation Minister applauds 'MRO for Safer Skies'
14 October, 2019: The minister dreams of seeing India as the MRO hub of South Asia

India's minister of civil aviation, Mr Hardeep Singh Puri has appreciated the effort of STAT Times, the organiser of the 3rd Aerospace & Defence MRO South Asia summit, in providing a platform to enable aviation experts to deliberate and advance MRO policies, plans and projects.

The theme of MRO South Asia summit, 'MRO for Safer Skies' will include discussion on the improvisations, innovations and latest technology which the Indian aerospace MRO industry can incorporate in their aerospace maintenance units for renewed and safer skies.

In his message to the delegates, Mr Puri also touched on how India is growing at a break-neck speed to become the fastest growing aviation market in the world. The Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul sector which scores brownie points with every percentile growth in the aviation field has shown an accelerating growth.

He also emphasised the multiplier effect of such MRO businesses which will have a far reaching positive impact on the Make in India programme. This will encourage operators from across the continent to send their aircraft to India for major repairs thereby leading to better employment opportunities and significantly contributing to the country's GDP.

Commenting on the theme he said," 'MRO for Safer Skies' would enable aviation experts to deliberate and advance MRO policies, plans and projects. I am hopeful that this summit would encourage and boost both aviation and aerospace MRO industry in India".

The annual summit MRO South Asia will take place for the 3rd time at India's capital city, New Delhi on the 6th & 7th February 2020.
