On Friday, Air India again issued a boarding card carrying pictures of Narendra Modi and Vijay Rupani, Chief Minister of Gujarat, to a passenger travelling from Madurai.
“Today’s incident is apparently a human error. A show- cause notice on the error has been issued to the airport manager of Air India at Madurai. Today, the Air India management has reiterated its earlier instructions and asked for confirmation from all stations regarding discontinuation of these boarding cards,” an airline spokesperson said, adding that the airline had issued a notice on March 25 to all domestic stations to discontinue using boarding cards with Vibrant Gujarat advertisement on the reverse with immediate effect. Sources indicated that the error happened as old and new stocks of boarding cards got mixed.
