Districts step up vigil as many truck drivers return home
Several districts that are home to thousands of truck drivers and their helpers have stepped up checks for symptoms of Covid-19 after lockdown measures were eased to boost inter-state movement of goods. From Nuh in Mewat and Ferozepur in Punjab to Ratnal in Kutch and Namakkal in Tamil Nadu, most districts with truckers' villages have new rules in place for their drivers, including limited travel to Maharashtra, screening of drivers at least two times, and compulsory 14-day quarantine outside of the village for every lorry driver returning home. Transport associations, however, told ET that state border checks of drivers are not enough as there is still a shortage of food, repair mechanics and medical care on highways.

Air India Delhi-Moscow flight called back after pilot found corona positive
NEW DELHI: An The Airbus A-320 Neo (VT-EXR) returned to Delhi at about 12.30 pm and now the crew will be quarantined as per norms. This plane will be fumigated and the airline is sending another A320 Neo to Moscow later on Saturday afternoon to fly back Indians from there. “It was a genuine oversight due to the massive amount of test results that need to be gone through. Delhi base alone sees testing of 300 crew members daily due to which more labs had to be roped in. The volume of tests has meant results come in an excel sheet now. The person checking the test result status of crew who have tested negative and hence are available for rostering cleared an A320 crew for the Delhi-Moscow flight,” said sources. The aircraft without passengers took off on Saturday morning. Over two hours into the flight, another person double-checking the crew test result found that a pilot who had tested positive was mistakenly cleared for the Moscow flight. AI then took a conscious call, … [Read more...] about Air India Delhi-Moscow flight called back after pilot found corona positive
