Aviation regulator DGCA has formed a three-member team to conduct a fact-finding enquiry into IndiGo crew barring a specially-abled child from boarding a flight at the Ranchi airport as he was in a "state of panic”. The DGCA issued a statement on Monday saying, “The team will visit Ranchi and Hyderabad (place of stay of the family concerned) and collect appropriate evidence within one week from today. Based on the outcome of the inquiry, further action shall entail."
IndiGo CEO Ronojoy Dutta expressed regret on Monday over the incident and offered to buy an electric wheelchair for the boy. Dutta said the airline staff took the best possible decision under difficult circumstances. Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia said on Twitter that no human being should have to go through this and he himself is investigating the Ranchi incident.
