NLS-AirAsia help Jharkhand migrants
In a major humanitarian initiative, the alumnis of Bengalaru-based National Law School helped a 175-odd group of migrants stranded in Mumbai to reach their home state of Jharkhand.
Through a crowdfunding initiative, they chartered an AirAsia India aircraft and flew them to Jharkhand.
The AirAsia plane left the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport in Mumbai around 6 am and within hours, the happy group landed at the Birsa Munda Airport at Ranchi.
“AirAsia India is proud to be a part of this initiative that helps migrant workers adversely impacted by the lockdown reach their homes and families,” said Anup Manjeshwar, Head, Sales & Distribution, AirAsia India.
