Mangaluru, Oct 13: Further expanding its already-extensive network, Jet Airways will operate more flights between south Indian cities like Mangaluru and Middle Eastern destinations in coming days.

jetThe Indo-Gulf route is already among Jet Airways' busiest and the airline has ramped up the number of flights on the sector to meet this growing demand. A high level officer of the private carrier told Coastaldigest.com that it will operate more flights in future from south Indian cities like Managluru, Bengaluru, Kozhikode and Kochi.

He said that on October 30, 2016 Jet Airways will launch a daily service from Kozhikode to Sharjah. The outbound flight, 9W 208, will depart Kozhikode at 2125 hrs (IST) and arrive in Sharjah at 2355 hrs (local time). The inbound flight 9W 207 will depart Sharjah at 1620 hrs (local time) and arrive in Kozhikode at 2145 hrs (IST).

The new service will make Kozhikode the third Indian city to be connected by Jet Airways to Sharjah, adding to the daily flights that the airline already operates to the Emirate from Kochi and Mangaluru.

According to Gaurang Shetty, whole-time director, Jet Airways, "the Gulf region is becoming an increasingly popular destination among the Indian population, whether it's for business travel, tourism or employment. To cater to this growing demand, Jet Airways has progressively taken steps to enhance capacity on the route either by deploying more aircraft or introducing wide-body options on the sector.

He said that Jet Airways has established itself as the preferred airline on Indo-Gulf routes and expanding our already extensive network, allied to our reputation for service excellence, will ensure we remain the airline of choice for guests flying between India and the Gulf.

Bengaluru, Jan 24: After the visit of fact finding committee members to the spot, the Christian community here decided to submit a report to the state government urging to install a 114-ft. statue of Jesus Christ at Kapala Betta in Kanakapura taluk of Ramanagaram district, Congress MLC Ivan D’souza said here on Thursday.

While talking to media, Mr D’souza said the committee would submit the report to Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa and Revenue Minster R. Ashok and urge the government to construct the statue at the earliest.

The RSS and other BJP outfits have strongly opposed the installation, following which the government ordered suspension of the work. A few days ago, Kalladka Prabhakar, RSS ideologue, took out a rally in Kanakapura opposing the installation.
