This advisory has been issued by Amitabh Singh, Director Operations of Air India with immediate effect. The advisory even dictated crew members to announce it with much fervor and after a slight pause.
According to Air India officials the advisory issued was a ‘reminder’ to all the staffs and crew members about the “mood of the nation”. Even in May 2016, similar stint was carried on by the carrier’s Chairman and Managing Director, Ashwani Lohani.
Lohani directed the cabin crews that they should always greet passengers with a “namaskar” while boarding and deplaning, as a reminder of our traditions. He also asked his airlines’ staffs to be courteous and polite. They should always greet their passengers with a smile which is a ‘good thing’.
Air India has issued a circular to all cabin crew and cockpit crew directing them to say 'Jai Hind' after any announcement onboard.

The flight will be delayed a further 20 minutes to accommodate a late running MP, Jai Hind.

Now all crew need to say Jai Hind instead of thank you. Airlines need to use Sanskrit Prayer before its plane takes off

No not enough. The crew must also yell “how’s the josh?” Once everybody has boarded. The loudest “high sir” and “jai hind” shall be upgraded to first class.

I feel this is a very good move and it should be made compulsory in all such organization where announcements are made.

Phew. Just what Air India needed. I mean, the only thing holding it back from being the best airline in the world was this.

Though announcing “Jai Hind’ is a good thing initiative but as a National carrier, Air India should also focus on punctuality and good services too.
