FINANCIAL SUPPORT FOR RESEARCH SCHOLARS FROM INDIA

NAOP 2008 will try its best to provide financial support to a limited number of research scholars, who don’t get any scholarship, based on their need and merit to encourage them to attend the conference, provided that sufficient funds are available. The support will partially cover conference registration fees, travel (return train fare by sleeper class or equivalent), lodging and boarding expenses.

Once funds are available, further information will be made available in this section.

International flights to India

Flights to India tend to fill up well ahead of the December holiday season. We recommend that you make your flight reservations 3-4 months in advance, to be on the safe side. Most international airlines have direct flights to India from Europe and Singapore/Hong-Kong. From the US, most of the international airlines fly to India with a single stopover.

 

Domestic Flights

There are direct flights from Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai and Mumbai offered by Indian Airlines, JetLite, Jet Airways, Air Deccan, Kingfisher Airlines, Spicejet Airlines and Indigo Airlines. The detailed schedule and fare may be checked in the website of the corresponding airlines  http://www.indianairlines.in/, http://www.jetairways.com/, http://www.flykingfisher.com/, http://www.airdeccan.net/, http://www.spicejet.com/, http://www.goindigo.in/.

 

Connecting flights via Kolkata and Delhi are available from almost all major cities.

IIT Guwahati has excellent telecommunication facilities. However, prepaid mobile connections will NOT have roaming facility in this region. Also, CDMA phones don’t work here.
