Near-Miss incident at Patna airport
A Delhi-to-Patna IndiGo flight with 173 people on board narrowly avoided disaster on Tuesday night when it overshot the runway at Patna's airport.
Thanks to the pilot's quick response, the plane circled four times and landed safely—avoiding a potential crash near a busy residential area.
