Writing positive stuff is always good; it makes one feel good…

So here I am, writing something good, something positive. The last two posts I did were rather negative ones; I had to, since the issues concerned were real and vital…

So, here’s good news for people visiting India from countries like Japan, Singapore, Finland, New Zealand etc, tourists from where are allowed visa on arrival in India. Within one year, four more airports in India, namely Goa, Kochi, Hyderabad and Bengaluru, will have the visa on arrival facility. At present only the New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata airports have this facility.

The decision to extend the visa on arrival facility to Goa, Kochi, Hyderabad and Bengaluru airports was taken at an inter-ministerial committee meeting held recently under the chairmanship of Pulok Chatterjee, who is the Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister.

Agreed that visitors to India from many other countries still have Visa-related woes that go unaddressed and unattended, but, for people from those countries that are accorded the Visa-on-Arrival facility, this definitely is good news. They can fly in to the airport of their choice…

So, next news let’s hope brings in more good tidings.
