New Delhi: State carrier Air India on Friday lifted the flight ban on Shiv Sena MP Ravindra Gaikwad, nearly two weeks after he was barred from flying after he assaulted the national carrier’s staffer.

According to Air India sources, the ban was revoked after the airline received a letter from the civil aviation ministry to do so.
