DIAL CEO Videh Kumar Jaipuriar said, “Delhi Airport and its staff have been on the forefront ever since the outbreak of a pandemic. All airport staff, including that of stakeholders, worked round-the-clock to ensure the airport remains operational. They provided much-needed support to the country and the countrymen during the lockdown. We are launching the vaccination drive for these COVID warriors who are part of the airport’s ecosystem to save them from this dreaded virus. We hope this will help them in protecting themselves and their families from this pandemic.”
