An IndiGo flight from Ayodhya to the national capital was diverted due to bad weather to Chandigarh where it landed with just 1 or 2 minutes of fuel left on Saturday, a Delhi police officer has said even as the airline on Monday asserted that the aircraft had sufficient fuel.
In a post on X, Satish Kumar, who is DCP Crime with the Delhi Police, said he had a harrowing experience with IndiGo flight 6E 2702 from Ayodhya to Delhi.
He said the flight's scheduled departure time was 3:25 p.m. and scheduled arrival time was 4:30 p.m. but at around 4:15 p.m., the pilot announced that there was bad weather at the Delhi airport and that the plane had 45 minutes of holding fuel.
