Omar takes dig at Air India on serving veg food to passengers

SRINAGAR: Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah takes a dig at Air India for announcing to serve only vegetarian food to economy class passengers on domestic routes in the country.

         The working president of the main opposition National Conference (NC) was reacting to reports that Air India has stopped serving non-vegetarian  food to economy class passengers on domestic routes to save cost and avoid mixup of food.

         Taking to micro-blogging site Twitter Mr Abdullah said, “How much effort does it require to differentiate between colour coded stickers that say “Veg” & “Non Veg”?

        However, Mr Abdullah’s tweet received mixed response.  “Omar, it is economics of scale so it does matter. You should lean famous American airline case of saving one cucumber per salad to cut cos”, said a tweet.

    Another tweet said, “Looks like One state, One religion, One language, One party and One food campaign by the Central Govt”. (AGENCIES)
