New Delhi, Oct 04: Mankind Pharma honours Capt. Smit Machchhar with Rs 1 crore after the Flydubai cockpit crisis by acknowledging the courage and composure displayed by Capt. Smit Machchhar as a gesture of appreciation for the responsibility and leadership he demonstrated in the face of danger.
The company, in their LinkedIn post, said the contribution was meant to recognise Capt. Smit's conduct during the crisis, particularly his efforts to protect the passengers and members of his crew.
Capt. Smit's response helped ensure the safe diversion of a Flydubai flight from Dubai to Tel Aviv after his co-pilot allegedly attacked him with a knife and attempted to force the aircraft downward.
Mankind Pharma also shared the letter publicly, reiterating its appreciation for the captain's courage and responsibility. "Capt. Smit, you have made India proud. We salute you," the company said in its message accompanying the announcement.
