A post is being widely shared on social media claiming that the TATA authorities recently transferred the President of India’s daughter, who was working as a flight attendant in Air India, to internal affairs, for security reasons. Let us fact-check the claim made in the post.
Claim: TATA authorities recently transferred the President’s daughter to internal affairs, for security reasons.
Fact: President of India’s daughter, Ms. Swati Kovind was a cabin crew in Air India. She worked in Boeing 787, Boeing 777 flights before being deputed with Air India’s integration department in 2017, for security reasons. TATA group completed the purchase of Air India from Government of India and took over the management and control of the airline in January 2022. So, TATA authorities couldn’t have transferred the President’s daughter for security reasons as she was deputed earlier in 2017 itself. Hence, the claim made in the post is MISLEADING.
When we searched on google about President Ram Nath Kovind’s daughter, we found several news reports from 2017 which say that the President’s daughter was moved to ground duties at Air India for security reasons.
