Nagaland Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio on Tuesday officially launched the first air cargo service from Dimapur airport.
The air cargo service is a joint initiative of the Department of Horticulture, Nagaland and Airport Authority of India with Air India and Indigo as airline partners.
According to a News On Air report, CM Rio said the introduction of air cargo service is a long-felt need for the state as many of the products from the state go wasted.
