Nepal Airlines Corporation (NAC) has today evacuated stranded Nepali students from Bengaluru in India.
Issuing a press note, the national flag carrier said that Nepali students stranded in the satellite city of India in Bengaluru and nearby areas have been repatriated to Nepal amid the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
“This is the first rescue flight conducted from neighbouring India,” the press note reads, adding that it has been consistently carrying out rescue operations for stranded Nepalis from several countries during this time of crisis. Though, the airlines has not specified the number of rescued Nepali students, those who arrived from the NAC flight claimed that the NAC has been able to rescue only 81 students. “There are still more stranded Nepali students, who wants to return home but lack of knowledge and information has made the NAC flight bring less passengers,” they said.
Meanwhile, NAC has also conducted its chartered flight to Sudan. It has conducted the second chartered flight to the Africa for UN. Earlier, NAC has conducted chartered flight to Mali and Central African Republic for UN Peacekeeping Force. Today, the NAC flew some 238 Nepal Army Peacekeeping force for UN to Sudan.
