November 16, 2016

Bengaluru, Nov 16: Senior Congress leader and former Union minister Mani Shankar Aiyar on Tuesday said the party has to come out with an effective strategy to reach out to people to revive itself.aiyar

Speaking after inaugurating a workshop on the working of Panchayat Raj institutions organised by the Rajiv Gandhi Panchayat Raj Sanghatan, he said the party can grow in strength only if the workers reach out to people. An effective strategy is needed for this purpose, he added.

The Congress once had strong roots across the country. But of late, there appears to be a gap between the party and the people. The role of elected representatives of the party at the Panchayat level is important to bridge the gap between the party and people. The elected representatives should interact with the people and respond to their woes, he suggested.

The party workers are active in Karnataka.They should give top priority to strengthen the party. They should keep pace with changing times and adopt technology, he added.

Mumbai, May 10: Air India, which is operating flights to evacuate Indians stranded in foreign countries, have asked its pilots to undertake coronavirus test before they operate such flights, the sources said.

"Five Air India pilots have tested positive for coronavirus. These pilots were tested one after one. We suspect it could be a case of faulty testing kit as well," one of the sources said.

The five pilots fly Boeing 787 planes, the second source said.

A senior airline official said the five pilots had not operated any flight in the last three weeks.
