Amid reports of no social distancing, chaos and overcrowding at airports after new travelling guidelines were imposed due to spread of Omicron’ strain of Covid-19 variant, Union Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia on Monday directed the GMR group-led Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL), to implement better crowd management strategies.
The Minister called a meeting on Monday with officials of the Airports Authority of India, Bureau of Immigration and DIAL. Officials of Genestrings Diagnostics, the sole laboratory that does RT-PCR testing at the Delhi airport, were also present at the meeting.
Amid growing concern over the new Omicron variant of coronavirus, long queues at Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport with no social distancing is giving a harrowing time to flyers as they wait to get their RT-PCR test results.
