@ Cafe snack point in airport the black cardamom tea comes for Rs 54.

The security money that they have to deposit to the airport operator should be reduced thereby helping them to charge less for tea and eatables. The airport operators should see to it that prices of eatables and tea is reduced across airports of the country.
