Also, most flights in the north sector are being diverted. Many passengers who waited at the airport all night lost their patience. Some of them took over the public annoucement system. They had to be subdued by the CISF personnel.


Passengers have complained that the airlines didn’t inform them of the delays on time, while some say that after being told of delays, their flights were eventually cancelled. Due to the unavailability of proper information passengers remain extremely confused.


Civil Aviation Secretary is to hold a meeting at the airport to analyse the situation.


In Kolkata, at the Dumdum Airport passengers, after 15 hours of delay flights are set to take off. Passengers of an Indigo flight scheduled for Delhi staged a sit-in, outside the airline office and shouted slogans after they were made to wait all night at the airport.


These passengers had to spend the night at the Kolkata Airport with the airlines not offering any food, water, or accommodation.


In Mumbai, a huge backlog has been created due to Delhi-bound flights being delayed. Once again, the passengers complain of untimely information by the airlines.
