The Bureau of Civil Aviation Security (BCAS) issued show cause notices to IndiGo and Mumbai airport operator Mumbai International Airport Ltd (MIAL) after video of passengers having food on the tarmac besides an aircraft at the airport went viral on social media platforms, according to sources in the Ministry of Civil Aviation (MoCA).
The incident pertains to an IndiGo Goa-Delhi flight on Sunday, which was diverted to Mumbai due to massive fog-related disruptions at the Delhi airport. Upon landing, the passengers were allegedly allowed to disembark on the tarmac and even served refreshments there, something that is in contravention of the regulations. They were later allowed to board a Mumbai-Delhi flight without security check, which is another violation of aviation security rules.
