The Ministry of Civil Aviation is in consultation with the Directorate General of Civil Aviation for preparing the list The government has been left wiser after the recent manhandling of an Air India duty manager at the Delhi international airport by Shiv Sena Member of Parliament Ravindra Vishwanath Gaikwad. The March 23 incident led to boycott of Gaikwad by all the airlines who refused to fly him till he tendered an apology. It was finally today that Air India lifted the restriction on the MP after Aviation Minister Pusapati Ashok Gajapati Raju accepted Gaikwad’s apology.
