"Human life isn't getting as much as importance as it is in foreign countries. Through this service any kind of major accidents, organ transplants or in case of any other any major illness will be made easier for people in need, as the services of medical evacuated machines will be provided within few hours of booking it," explained Rajeev Wadhwa, CEO and Chairman, Baron Aviation.
"Currently we do not have adequate infrastructure to deal with such situations.
