The government has no intention to regulate airfares, Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia told NDTV, adding that the "market has to play itself out". He did, however, dish out numbers to underline that aviation is growing in India, which means airlines and customers both stand to gain in the "volume game". "After 20 years, we have a new entrant (Akasa Air) in a sector known for companies that shut shop," he stressed. He was speaking to NDTV in a week in which India yet again broke its record of daily fliers, crossing 4.3 million on December 24.
