Shocking news from the Mangalore airport!
The crew and the cabin crew of an airline refused to take in a seriously ill, one and a half year old infant, who'd to be urgently transferred to Bangalore for better medical management. They had no valid reason for not complying to the collective request of the hapless parents, the doctor and the hospital management under whose care the kid was and a few of the passengers. Instead they insisted on a clearance certificate from the Medical Officer of their airline, knowing fully well that the individual was unavailable!
What sort of barbarians are they? Would any of them have accepted a similar fate being meted to their own near and dear ones? What makes such people thrive in this world? I would like to believe that all those responsible for this boorish behaviour are from honourable families with honourable parents. Is this the value system that they've imbibed from them?
And what were they scared of? Being fired from their jobs by their management for incurring monetary losses, foisted upon it as compensation, on account of the child's probable death while in transit? Come on, have a heart and learn to respect another's life! It's much more precious than your job and not to forget, the lifelong guilt for the blot of anything untoward - god forbid - happening to the little one!!
Tailpiece.
The kid had to be taken by road, in an ambulance, on account of the faux pas cited above. My prayers for the kid's speedy recovery.
