Cargo Flights Lacking: Rajkot Jewellery Business Faces Hurdles

Cargo Flights Lacking: Rajkot Jewellery Business Faces Hurdles

Imagine a town famous for making beautiful silver and fake jewelry.

Normally, they would send their goods by plane to other places.

But, their airport doesn't have special cargo flights, so they have to use trucks.

This is causing big problems.

First, it's more expensive because they need to pay for guards and insurance in case the trucks get robbed.

Second, some trucks are getting robbed on the road.

It's like they are driving the jewelry through a dangerous neighborhood.

Businesses are losing money, and they are asking the airport to let them use a special gate for their goods, but the airport says it's too busy.
