Kathmandu. Passengers will no longer be able to carry all types of power banks on Nepal-India flights. Nepal Airlines has issued a notice saying that it has completely banned the carrying of MOBIKINS MK PB-04 power banks.

The circular of the Directorate General of Civil Aviation of India has made this provision keeping in mind the flight safety. According to the corporation, this power bank will not be allowed to be carried on any flight operating from or from India. There is also a complete ban on its transportation in the form of cabin handbags, check-in baggage and cargo.

Earlier, an IndiGo flight from Delhi to Chennai caught fire in a passenger’s power bank. After the incident, the aircraft was diverted to Hyderabad, India and made an emergency landing. After this incident, in view of the possible risks, the Indian aviation regulator has banned the power bank of the concerned model. Nepal Airlines Corporation (NAC) has asked passengers traveling from Nepal to India to travel without the power bank of the banned model.
