Twitter had mixed responses to the issue, one user wrote "You should have ECG machine on board (atleast long flights). I once attended a patient on an Air India Toronto-Del flight, gave my feedback regarding the ECG machine on board, and also wrote emails but in vain. Though it wasn’t Tata’s then. I’m Hopeful now".
Another user wrote, "Thank you for being prompt. Minister Dr BK Karad and minister Dr Subhash Bhamre. Sirs, very well done. Your quick act depicts your devotion to mankind and your profession both as Ministers and as doctors. Salute to you both."
