Dr. Soundararajan made special efforts by writing letters and making telephonic calls to the Union Minister for Civil Aviation and had requested the latter to restore direct flight connectivity on the Hyderabad-Puducherry route. As a result, the Centre has also agreed to extend the support under the Viability Gap Funding (VGF) to Spice Jet in resuming air connectivity in Hyderabad-Puducherry-Hyderabad route.
