Passengers traveling between Agartala and Guwahati are facing exorbitant airfares, exacerbating the difficulties already caused by disruptions in rail services in Assam’s Dima Hasao district due to a recent cyclonic storm. The steep fare hikes have particularly impacted students appearing for various entrance exams for higher studies.

On Saturday, the airfare on the Agartala-Guwahati route surged to Rs 13,900, with Sunday’s rates still exceeding Rs 10,000. This is a significant jump from the usual Rs 2,000 to Rs 2,500 fare seen just two weeks ago. The sudden increase has placed an added financial burden on travellers, especially students and their families.

Airlines appear to be capitalizing on the situation, exacerbating the crisis. Passengers have voiced concerns over the lack of intervention from both the state and union governments.

The sudden, uncontrolled rise in airfare during such a critical time has left many travelers, especially students, in a lurch, highlighting the urgent need for regulatory oversight.
