New Delhi: The exercise to bring back the stranded Indians has started. The entire blueprint for this has also been prepared. Civil Aviation Minister Hardeep Singh Puri himself gave this information on Tuesday. He told that from May 7 to May 13, planes will fly for foreign countries, in which Indians will be brought home.

For this work, the government has arranged 64 flights. With this, Hardeep Puri made it clear that the priority of the government at the moment is to bring back the stranded people abroad. For those who want to come home from the chartered plane, it will be thought of later. Civil Aviation Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said, "We cannot allow chartered planes during the lockdown because neither domestic flights nor international flights are in operation. So this will be considered later."

He further said that, people who normally live abroad, it will be our endeavor to organize them into flights as soon as these flights start. In the first week of May, Air India will start its flights in which people stranded abroad will be brought home. Over time, other airlines will also be added to it.
