New Delhi: Raghav Chadha had raised the issue of overpriced food and beverages available at airports during a discussion on the Indian Aviation Bill 2024 in the Winter Session of Parliament last year.

Raghav Chadha of AAP expressed joy as affordable food canteen now opens at Chennai airport after Kolkata airport. Raghav Chadha applauds the launch of “Udaan Yatri Cafe” at Chennai airport, addressing the long-standing issue of overpriced food in airports.

Raghav Chadha of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Friday appreciated the Centre’s initiative to launch the affordable eating joint ‘Udaan Yatri Cafe’ at the Chennai airport, months after a similar outlet was opened at the Kolkata airport.

This initiative aims to provide affordable meal options to travelers. It ensures that travelers do not overpay for food while traveling.

Sharing a video clip of the speech on social media platform X, the AAP Rajya Sabha MP wrote,

“A small spark can light up the darkest skies… First Kolkata, now Chennai! Glad to see affordable food canteens being set up at Airports. Grateful to everyone who supported my demand for affordable food and drinks at airports. Congratulations to each one of you – every drop together makes the ocean rise. I shall continue to raise issues of public interest. Keep sending me your suggestions…”

Chadha called a move a significant step towards making travel more comfortable and accessible, especially for those who find airport food very expensive. Refering to it as “Small Spark” he praised the government for taking such an important initiative.
