Noida International Airport in Jewar faced an unusual scene on Tuesday after heavy rain left water pooled in the forecourt linking its terminal and parking area. The waterlogging triggered online jokes about the airport turning into a “seaport” and drew questions over its drainage system, although officials said flights and other airport operations continued without disruption.
The affected passage, designed to resemble the ghats of Varanasi, briefly became the centre of attention after videos of the waterlogged area surfaced online. Airport teams used pumps to clear the water, and officials said the passage was restored within 30 minutes.
