Hardeep Singh Puri speaks on 'Is India ready to Fly Again'?

May 20,2020

Calibrated flight operations will resume this Monday. We have informed all the airports & all the civil aviation operators about our decision. We are in corporate federalism, we are in touch with the States for smooth operations. We have taken a call at the highest levels of govt and after discussing with the States, this decision has been taken. It will be a calibrated start & no state can have a veto on it. Quarantine serves a purpose. The standard procedure being worked out. Passengers need to take precautions during travel. There will be advisory for senior citizens before the travel. Air travel is essential to get back to normalcy amid this crisis. As we go along, we will have to come to terms with reality. People will have to take more precautions. says, Civil Aviation Minister Hardeep Singh Puri.
