Please facilitate the passenger.
This is the request that Calcutta airport officials are often getting from senior government officials in Delhi and Calcutta for many international passengers.
The request, sources said, is actually a plea for help so the passengers can jump the long queue for the mandatory health screening for Covid-19.
“The number of facilitation requests has increased manifold since the health screening facility was set up at Calcutta airport following the coronavirus outbreak in many countries,” an airport official said.
