New Delhi, Feb 17 (IANS) An Amritsar-bound Vistara flight had to make an emergency landing at the Indira Gandhi International Airport, after it developed a technical snag on Thursday morning.
There were 146 passengers onboard the flight when it took off from IGI for Amritsar. The emergency was sounded at runway number 28 of terminal number 2.
Soon after it took off, the pilot detected the snag and contacted the Airport authorities.
An emergency alarm was sounded and police and fire brigade were pressed into service.
A senior police official said that they got the call regarding the emergency landing at 10.15 a.m.
No one was hurt in the incident, he added.
According to the fire department, they got a call and six fire engines were rushed to the IGI.
With 31.9% Dalits, Punjab has the highest proportion of SCs to its total population. However, their representation in landholdings in the state is far from proportional.
According to the official, Ashraf Sheikh has "confessed" that he killed Khushi Parihar because he suspected her so-called character and "closeness" with some men.
Talking about the resignation of his cabinet colleague Navjot Singh Sidhu, Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh on Monday said he could not help if the power minister didn’t want to do his job.
