On Saturday, officials reported that an Air India Express flight from Delhi to Patna was diverted to Varanasi because of bad weather. The aircraft eventually landed in Patna later.Moreover, another IndiGo flight from Guwahati to Chennai, carrying 168 passengers, was forced to make an emergency landing at Bengaluru’s Kempegowda International Airport after the captain declared a ‘Mayday’ due to low fuel on Friday. The aircraft had attempted to land in Chennai, but the landing was aborted after the landing gear briefly touched the runway. A source indicated that the approach seemed unstable, prompting the pilot to execute a steep climb. Around 35 miles from Bengaluru, the distress call was issued, leading to the emergency diversion.
