D. Borah and B. Karmakar [1]have proposed an A_4 flavoured linear seesaw model to realise light Dirac neutrinos. In this comment article, we show that some neutrino Yukawa interactions were missed in the model Ref.[1], thus implying that a different formula would be needed to determine the effective neutrino mass matrix, with significantly different results. Our result shows that, unlike stated in Ref.[1], that the inverted neutrino mass spectrum is not ruled out.
