(20 minute reading) An IndiGo flight traveling from Ayodhya to Delhi on Saturday, April 13, was forced to make an unscheduled landing in Chandigarh due to low fuel, raising concerns about passenger safety and potential violations of aviation protocols.
Satish Kumar, a passenger on the flight and Deputy Commissioner of Police, shared his harrowing experience on social media. “The plane finally managed to land at Chandigarh Airport at 6:10 PM, 115 minutes after the announcement about having 45 minutes of holding fuel. Got to know after landing that we landed in the nick of time, with only 1 or 2 minutes of fuel left, from the crew staff,” he claimed.
