Bangkok-bound Air India flight 'held back' at Mumbai airport for over 5 hours
A Bangkok-bound Air India flight from the city was held back for over five hours on June 25, after some hay was found stuck in one of the aircraft's wings, the airline has said. This was immediately attended to, and the aircraft was subsequently cleared for operation, Air India said in a statement. The Tata Group-run airline did not share other key details such as the number of passengers and crew on board, the type of aircraft, the scheduled time of departure and for how long the passengers remained stranded at the Mumbai airport. However, according to flight tracking website the flight AI 2354, operated by an Airbus A320Neo plane, was scheduled to depart from Mumbai at 7:45 a.m. However, it departed after a delay of over five hours— around 1 p.m. "AI2354 scheduled to operate from Mumbai to Bangkok on 25 June 2025 was held back as some hay was found stuck below the left wing of the operating aircraft," Air India said in a statement on Friday (June 27, 2025). This was immediately attended to, and the aircraft was subsequently cleared for operation, the airline said, adding that the source of the hay (getting below the wing) could not be identified. It also said as the flight crew came under the regulatory flight duty time limitations, the flight could not depart immediately. The service provider handling the aircraft at Mumbai airport has been instructed to investigate the matter, which has been duly reported to the safety regulator, Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), Air India said in the statement. The passengers were disembarked and served refreshments, and the flight departed as soon as a fresh set of flight crew reported, the airline added. The incident came days after the DGCA detected multiple violations related to airlines, airports, aircraft maintenance works, and repeated defects in multiple cases during its surveillance at major airports, an exercise carried out in less than two weeks after the June 12 Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad. Without disclosing names of the airlines, airports and other entities in relation to the defects, the regulator had on Tuesday said surveillance covered multiple critical areas such as flight operations, airworthiness, ramp safety, Air Traffic Control (ATC), Communication, Navigation and Surveillance (CNS) systems, and pre-flight medical evaluations. The surveillance was done last week and the DGCA is stepping up efforts to strength the overall safety oversight of the aviation ecosystem.

GHMC, Hyderabad cops partner to free public spaces from pestering beggars
HYDERABAD: The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC), in coordination with Hyderabad City Police, has launched a special drive to remove beggars from busy traffic junctions and public spaces. The initiative aims to relocate them to shelter homes or reunite them with their families. The GHMC's Urban Community Development (UCD) wing has so far identified 221 individuals — 173 men, 37 women, and 11 children. Of these, 19 have been shifted to GHMC-run shelters, while others were counselled and sent back to their families. As per GHMC Commissioner RV Karnan's instructions, the drive covers key locations such as Basheerbagh, Secretariat, Nampally and Begum Bazar. Special UCD teams are working across all GHMC circles. Officials are conducting medical checks before relocating people to shelters. The initiative not only clears public spaces but also offers care, rehabilitation, and a path toward reintegration for the marginalised, they said.
