Budget airliner Spicejet’s Chief Operating Officer (SeaPlane department) Santanu Kalita claimed that seaplanes can bring revolution in the tourism sector. “Northeast is a God gifted and most beautiful natural land in India. We will see and reflect on the fly plan scheme, Guwahati to Kaziranga to Dima Hasao. We have sufficient eight months to set the fly plan scheme which will result in flourishing of tourism,” Kalita said

North Eastern Council Adviser R. Lalrodingi, in his address in the valedictory session, said that the local people must get benefits from tourism. Stressing on the creation of community based tourism, he said: “We must think straight and properly organise it. Good marketing is essential. One main factor to be highlighted is within the northeast area must have an operational area for more organised and systematic tourism. Let people learn more about their own region to speak more about their own region to prepare a good atmosphere for tourists.”
