After DGCA nod, airlines de-board seven passengers for flouting Covid-19 norms
Amid a surge in Covid-19 cases across the country, seven passengers of various airlines have so far been de-boarded for not following safety protocols, such as the mandatory face mask rule.
News agency ANI reported on Thursday that Alliance Air, IndiGo and Air Asia have asked seven passengers to de-board the plane until now after the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) issued rules in this regard.
The DGCA had stated last week that passengers will be “de-boarded” from flights if they don’t wear masks properly inside the aircraft or don’t follow “Covid-19 appropriate behaviour”.
