Flights mein aag lagne ki ghatnao ke baad, DGCA ne Mobikins MK-PB-04 power bank ko plane mein le jaane par total rok laga di hai. Ab ise cabin ya checked baggage mein rakhna mana hai.
Regulatory Crackdown: Flight safety se samjhauta nahi
DGCA ne September 29 ko ek sakht directive jari kiya hai, jisme Mobikins MK-PB-04 power bank ko kisi bhi commercial flight mein le jaane par rok laga di gayi hai. Ye ban itna sakht hai ki aap ise na toh apne saath cabin mein le ja sakte hain, na checked-in luggage mein daal sakte hain aur na hi cargo mein bheje sakte hain. Ye rule Bharat ki har flight par lagu hota hai.
Kyun liya gaya ye khatarnak step?
Lithium-ion batteries ki wajah se flights mein 'thermal runaway' aur aag lagne ke cases badh rahe hain. Ek fire incident ke baad, authorities ne mana hai ki ye specific model flight ki safety ke liye bada risk hai. DGCA ka ye move saaf dikhata hai ki woh fire safety ko lekar ab koi risk lene ke mood mein nahi hain.
Air Travel par iska asar
Kuch din pehle hi IndiGo ki ek flight mein passenger ka power bank overhead bin mein phat gaya tha, jiske baad flight ko Hyderabad divert karna pada tha. Ab regulators baggage screening ko lekar bahut alert ho gaye hain. Travel karne se pehle apne charger ka model number zaroor check kar lein, warna airport par dikkat ho sakti hai.
