FIFA World Cup

Tata-owned Air India plans to offer more flights to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Qatar as the FIFA World Cup excitement shoots up, with the opening of the football event in November.

Around 1.5 million fans are expected to arrive in Qatar to attend the football event. Air India will add four weekly flights between Dubai and Kolkata once the winter schedule starts on October 22. The carrier will deploy its Airbus A320Neo single-aisle aircraft, with the capacity of 12 business-class seats and 150 economy seats. Air India is currently operating 69 weekly flights to Dubai, a city and emirate in the United Arab Emirates.

Currently, Air India is also selling discounted one-way flight fares for passengers departing from Gulf countries to celebrate India’s 75th Independence Day. India’s aviation authority is also lifting the caps on air fares from August 31.

The limits on capacity and fares were imposed in May 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

FIFA World Cup

The 2022 FIFA World Cup is scheduled to be the 22nd running of the FIFA World Cup competition. The schedule is from 21 November to 18 December 2022 in Qatar. Top brands like Adidas, Coca-Cola,  Hyundai, Wanda Group, and Qatar Airways are sponsors of FIFA World Cup 2022. Qatar is hosting the FIFA World Cup for the first time.

Earlier, Qatar was criticised by Amnesty International and other international organisations for the working conditions of migrant workers. Qatar World Cup organisers also admitted that workers were exploited working on projects linked to the 2022 FIFA World Cup. More than  24,000 workers suffered human rights abuses in Qatar. Nearly 100 workers who built the Al Bayt Stadium were not paid for up to seven months.  Several reports also claimed that working conditions led to the death of some workers. Amnesty International also urged FIFA organisers and sponsors to act over the alleged abuse of security guards in Qatar.

In a Recent  Crisis, President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan has taken a laudable move, asking the UAE to offer immediate humanitarian aid and dispatch search and rescue teams to Libya in the aftermath of Storm Daniel's devastating floods.    It is pleasing to see leaders step forward with compassion and offer practical support in the face of  natural disasters and crises.

  This year's global climate summit begins in Dubai. Did you know that Dr. Sultan bin Ahmed Al Jaber, Minister of Industry and Advanced Technology and President of COP28 , stressed the essential need for immediate climate action before to the summit? The shrinking time period and the global community's progress since the Paris Agreement's adoption in 2015 emphasize the urgency.  Let us first discuss the cop conference  and what I believe Cop28 will do.  First Cop summit  emphasizes that major strides have been made since COP21, guiding the earth away from the initially forecast 3°C global warming and toward around 2.5°C.  Second, according to the International Energy Agency's most recent projections, global carbon emissions will peak in this decade, intensifying the need for comprehensive climate policies. I believe in cOP28  It is fitting, then, that this year’s climate summit should happen in a place famous for sitting at the intersection of finance and innovative th
