India's aviation sector is booming, says Modi

Addressing the inaugural session of the four-day Wings India 2026 summit virtually, Modi said India is expected to have more than 400 airports by 2047. He noted that Indian airlines have already placed orders for over 1,500 aircraft in recent years, reflecting rising demand for air travel.

Participants from 20 countries attended the summit. Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu, who was scheduled to inaugurate the event, could not attend as he travelled to Baramati following an air crash earlier in the day.
