Thiruvananthapuram: Chief Minister Oommen Chandy Wednesday expressed strong resentment over the hike in airfare by airlines operating to Gulf regions and said the state's protest would be conveyed to the Union civil aviation ministry.
"The airline companies are creating an artificial demand for tickets by cutting down services and taking advantage of the Onam festival season," he told reporters during the cabinet briefing here.
"Kerala's protest in this regard will be conveyed to the Union Ministry for Aviation", he added.
Hundreds of Keralites working in Gulf countries visit their home towns during the Onam festival, which falls in the first week of September.
