An IndiGo flight was canceled on Thursday reportedly hours after the plane skidded off the runway during the takeoff. The plane had over 90 passengers aboard. This is the latest incident linked to a domestic flight that has sparked concerns. The aviation regulator DGCA (Directorate General of Civil Aviation) has taken note of many such incidents in the recent past.
All passengers were safe during the incident, and a team was formed for the probe, the airlines was quoted as saying by news agency ANI, adding that “no abnormalities were found during the initial investigation”.
The flight – which was bound for Kolkata – was apparently scheduled to take off at 2:20 pm but it was finally cancelled at around 8 pm, news agency PTI reported.
