SpiceJet Limited, an Indian airline company, will start flights between Guwahati and Dhaka from July 1 onward under the India's central government’s UDAN International scheme.
The July 1 flight from Guwahati to the Bangladesh capital would be the first to fly under the UDAN International scheme, the low-cost airline said on Sunday.

"The airline will add additional frequencies on the Kolkata-Dibrugarh-Kolkata (2nd frequency), Guwahati-Dibrugarh-Guwahati (2nd frequency) and two additional frequencies on Bengaluru-Mangaluru-Bengaluru sector (total five flights now)," the airline said.
