Union Minister Kiren Rijiju will travel on a SpiceJet flight to Kosice, Slovakia as a special envoy of the central government to oversee the evacuation of stranded students in war-torn Ukraine.

The airline will use its Boeing 737 MAX aircraft for this special flight.

The aircraft will fly to Kosice in Slovakia from Delhi and the return flight will operate via Kutaisi, Georgia.

This is the second evacuation flight being operated by SpiceJet under Operation Ganga after a special flight that left yesterday night for Budapest from Delhi to evacuate the stranded citizens.

The airline is in discussion with the concerned authorities to operate more evacuation flights in the coming days.
