A serious safety concern arose as a powerful laser beam intruded the cockpit of an IndiGo flight from Bengaluru to Kolkata. The incident occurred when the plane was just a kilometer away from landing, with 165 passengers and six crew members onboard.
The pilots were momentarily blinded by the laser, raising alarms about the dangers posed by such actions. Both pilots and airlines have urged the Bidhannagar Police to take strict action against individuals using lasers near airports, emphasizing the need to ensure flight safety.
