While Bohra’s tweet itself seemed to give the answer to his question, there were several netizens who told informed him that passport was required to travel by flight. One wrote, ‘Aadhar is not valid to travel to Nepal by air.. this is the rule since very long, should have checked before travelling.' Even Air India’s official website has listed passport as a document required for India to Nepal travel.
As celebrities like Raghu Ram, Jay Bhanushali, among others, empathised with him, he agreed that he should have carried his passport. However, he asserted that he should've been stopped at Mumbai itself. He asked if they were 'comatose.'
Beats new bro? The @airindiain airlines themselves don't know the mandate... What they would have stored me in Mumbai itself.

Agree that I should have taken my passport, but why didn't they stop me at the airport? Were they in comatose? Really it's Better...A Pvt company handles this airline. https://t.co/rVDqQoR63m

Mumbai mein rok Lete, toh it would have been simpler to get the passport, rather than letting me fly on an invalid document and getting a person flown from Mumbai to Delhi just to get my passport. https://t.co/cmqfoKCB5A
