Govt officials told to fly with AI while travelling on work

Government said on Thursday it has issued directives making it mandatory for its officials to fly with Air India while traveling on work.
"Since Air India is the national carrier, these instructions (for government officials to fly with Air India) have been issued. This is in line with what other countries have issued to their officials in the use of their national airlines," civil aviation minister Praful Patel said while replying to a Lok Sabha query.
"This would generate revenues for the national carrier as Air India is improving its load factor and revenues," he added.
