Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Beginning Saturday, the Tourism department is rolling out a helicopter service on a Public Private Partnership (PPP) model in three identified sectors of the state.With this, the department is hopeful of replicating Uttarakhand’s model.

Last year, the Aviation Department also launched a similar service between Bhopal, Ujjain, Indore, and Omkareshwar. But a tepid public response led to only a few sorties.

A senior Aviation department officer said on the condition of anonymity that the service was heavy on the pocket, with a ticket costing Rs 10,000. Taking a train or even one’s own vehicle to Ujjain would cost one much less, either from Bhopal or Indore.
