IndiGo will be soon introducing the gender-neutral honorific ‘Mx’ option for passengers at the time of booking tickets, as part of larger efforts to boost inclusivity. Besides, the country’s largest carrier, which has a domestic market share of 62 per cent, aims to increase by two-fold the number of individuals with disabilities employed by it.

The airline will introduce the ‘Mx’ option at the time of booking for passengers and will provide a choice for transgenders who do not want to identify themselves, said Sukhjit S Pasricha, Group Chief Human Resources Officer at IndiGo.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
