IndiGo's Nagpur-Delhi flight returned to taxiway after pilot detects error, Nitin Gadkari among passengers
Aug 13, 2019 2:38 AM

An IndiGo flight from Nagpur to Delhi on Tuesday morning had to come back to the taxiway after the aircraft developed a serious error. Union transport minister was among the passengers on the flight.

The pilot of IndiGo's 6E 636 flight going from Nagpur to Delhi decided to abort the take-off after detecting a serious error, reported news agency ANI.

All the passengers on the Airbus A320neo aircraft were later de-boarded.

Gadkari was scheduled to travel to Delhi from Nagpur in IndiGo's flight 6E-636 in the morning, reported PTI. His office here confirmed to PTI that the minister was on the flight when it returned from the runway.

The Nagpur airport's senior director Vijay Mulekar said the flight to Delhi did not take off due to a "technical fault"

On August 4, a Lucknow-bound IndiGo flight carrying around 143 passengers had returned to the city airport, almost an hour after its departure, due to a technical glitch.

Shakespeare's birthplace mirrors a scepter'd isle riven by Brexit discontent
Mar 26, 2019
In William Shakespeare's ancient birthplace, discontent over Brexit runs even deeper than three years ago when this "scepter'd isle" shocked the world by voting to leave the European Union. The 2016 referendum revealed a United Kingdom divided over much more than EU membership, and has sparked impassioned debate about everything from secession and immigration to capitalism, empire and what it means to be British. Just days before the United Kingdom was originally supposed to leave the EU on March 29, nothing is resolved: it remains uncertain how, when or if it ever will. Brexit, and the future of the kingdom, is in play. In Stratford-upon-Avon, which voted in line with the national 52-48 decision to leave, both Brexiteers and Remainers are aghast at what they said was the national humiliation of Prime Minister Theresa May's collapsing exit negotiations. With its Anglo-Saxon heritage, black-and-white Tudor houses, understated wealth and lucrative Shakespeare tourist business, Stratford is as typically English as a town gets. But under the gilded surface, both sides of the Brexit divide have ominous warnings for the politicians in London: Dash our dreams and face a much deeper fissure that will bleed the United Kingdom for generations to come.
