Rs 20 lakh will be given to the victim's family: Union Minister.

PM Modi inaugurated a building in the other terminal and it is intact. The building whose roof has collapsed is an old building inaugurated in 2009. It is a 15-year-old building. Using this situation to take a dig at the government is not a good example."

 

Passengers will get a refund

We do not want such an incident to happen again, so we have called a special team from the structural department of IIT Delhi. They will give a preliminary inspection report, based on which necessary action will be taken. To ensure that we are getting structural preliminary inspection done at all airports, we have asked for a report from all airports across the country within 2-5 days. Is.
