People fasting during Navratri often face the problem of finding vrat-friendly snacks while travelling. Most prefer not to eat anything while in transit. IPS officer Arun Bothra while flying in an IndiGo flight declined to take any snacks due to the same reason. What, however, he wasn’t ready for was the sweet surprise that followed. One of the flight attendants returned to him with a tray filled with items he could eat. Expressing his gratitude, Bothra took to X to share this heartwarming gesture.
“Mother Divine takes care of you in different forms. Today she came as Purvi, an IndiGo 6E crew member. As I didn’t take snacks due to #Navratri fasting she returned with Sabudana Chips, Til Chikki & tea. When I asked how much to pay, she said- ‘No money sir. I am also fasting’,” he wrote.

The IPS officer also shared an image that shows the different vrat-friendly snacks kept on a tray along with a glass of beverage. A note kept on the tray also reads, “To Mr Bothra, it was a pleasure having you onboard with us today. May NavDurga bless you with abundance. From Purvi.”
