With the modes including Air India, Air India-Express private and foreign carriers, chartered flights, land-border crossing, and naval ships, as many as 17.2 lakh Indians have been repatriated under Vande Bharat Mission so far from the start of the pandemic.
Phase VII of the Vande Bharat Mission has around 873 international flights scheduled from 25 countries, for the month of October. India made a bilateral air bubble agreement with 14 countries for the repatriation.
