| 'Make airports in J&K handy for differently-abled' | | HC to AAI | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, May 15: The J&K High Court has directed the Airport Authority of India (AAI) to make airports of Jammu, Leh and Srinagar "completely accessible" to the differently-abled.
A division bench of the High Court comprising Chief Justice Gita Mittal and Justice Tashi Rabstan while hearing a Public Interest Litigation directed Director Airports of Jammu-Leh-Srinagar that "all the three airports are made completely accessible to the differently abled. The AAI shall ensure that all measures as are essential for enabling access to the airports as well as aircrafts and all other facilities are provided at the airports."
When the matter came up for hearing, the bench on the request of ASGI granted six weeks for filling of report on behalf of Indian Air Force.
The court further observed that there has been one more aspect which has been overlooked in this PIL which relates to the disability access audit of the airports in Jammu and Kashmir. |
