Among the passengers, Vivekanand Hodekar from Karnataka, who was there to attend the award ceremony, said he panicked when his flight was cancelled. He credited Chairman and MD of Vijayanand Roadlines Limited (VRL) Group, Vijay Sankeshwar, for arranging food, shelter, and alternate return flights for all 50 awardees.
A journalist who had gone to Dubai to cover the VR awards also shared his ordeal, saying his flight scheduled for March 1was cancelled, followed by another cancellation for March 3. With Sankeshwar's help, he was finally able to book a SpiceJet flight for March 6. "My family was waiting for me, and I was very tense. I am happy to have reached home safely," he said.
The coordinated efforts ensured the safe return of all passengers despite the uncertainty caused by the conflict in the region. (ANI)
