Minister as IndiGo refuses to board a disabled child: ‘Looking into myself’
In response to IndiGo’s refusal to board a child with a disability, Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia said he was “investigating the matter” himself. “This type of behaviour will not be tolerated.” This is something that no human being should have to go through! “I’m investigating the matter on my own, after which appropriate action will be taken (sic),” the aviation minister tweeted early Monday, sharing a journalist’s account of the incident.
According to a post shared widely on social media by Manisha Gupta, the founder and director of a consultancy called Start Up India, the incident occurred on Saturday.
“An adolescent with special needs was in great distress yesterday at the Ranchi airport. He’d endured a harrowing car ride to the airport. He appeared to be in the throes of hunger, thirst, anxiety, and confusion by the time he had gone through security and arrived at the gate (nearly an hour before boarding),” the post read, calling it a “shame and distress” incident.
“His parents clearly knew how to deal with his meltdown – patience, cajoling, sternness, lots of hugs, and so on.” Other passengers came over to see if they needed any assistance or support. The #indigoairlines staff noticed this and approached the trio, warning them that if the child did not calm down and become ‘normal,’ they would not be allowed to board. The child had been fed by the time the boarding began. He’d taken several sips of juice and water. Except for some big displays of general teenage assertiveness, his parents had successfully given him his medicine, and he seemed ready. “Then we saw a full display of brute authority and power,” it continued.
According to the post, the airline refused to board the child because he posed a risk to others.
On Sunday, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) announced that it was investigating the incident. The DGCA has requested a report from IndiGo, according to DGCA chief Arun Kumar.
Meanwhile, in response to the outrage, the airline said, “In the interest of passenger safety, a specially-abled child could not board the flight with his family on May 7 because he was in a state of panic.” The ground crew waited until the last minute for him to calm down, but to no avail, according to the report.
“We apologise for the inconvenience this has caused the passengers. IndiGo is proud of itself.
According to reports, Jimmy Kimmel is thinking about leaving his late-night show to devote more time to his son Billy’s continuous struggle with congenital heart problems.
This week, a number of people with knowledge of the situation disclosed that Kimmel intends to leave Jimmy Kimmel Live! after his contract expires in 2025 in order to spend more time with his wife Molly McNearney, who co-head writes the show.
Kimmel’s choice, according to Radar Online, is a result of Billy’s health issues, especially in the wake of Billy’s most recent third open-heart surgery. But now he’s a “healthy kid.”
The Late Night presenter shared the news on Instagram in late May, saying, “We went into this experience with a lot of optimism and nearly as much fear and came out with a new valve inside a happy, healthy kid.”
Sources close to Radar Online claim that the Kimmels are getting ready to step back from the spotlight. According to an informant, Jimmy and his spouse prioritise their family over notoriety. They know what to do financially, so they’re prepared to step back from the spotlight and concentrate on what matters most.
“Life is too short to waste time on a job that brings you no happiness.”
Kimmel’s spokesperson denied the findings.
Even though Kimmel’s publicist denied any talks regarding his possible resignation and called the claim “silly,” especially in light of his son’s recent surgery.
“Though they’ll likely stay busy producing and developing shows behind the scenes, their main focus will be spending precious time with their family,” an insider was quoted by Perez Hilton.
Billy’s congenital heart issue was initially made public by Kimmel in 2017, not long after Billy was born, along with the difficulties his family was facing. Billy was born with a heart condition, according to an echocardiography, a type of cardiac sonography that was performed, Kimmel disclosed on his show.
“Tetralogy of Fallot associated with pulmonary atresia.” In essence, there is a hole in the wall separating his left and right sides of the heart, and the pulmonary valve was totally obstructed.
Three days after his birth, Billy had his first successful open-heart surgery. A few months later, he had another one. Billy had his third operation last month at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. This was his most recent procedure.
