Miraculous escape for Indian passengers

Srinagar: Two planes of Indian, previously known as Indian airlines, nearly collapsed on Srinagar International Airport on Thursday.
Sources told Greater Kashmir a chartered flight of the Indian having troopers on board after landing came very close to another Delhi bound passenger jet of the same airlines. “There was probably error in observation by the employees of the airliner, as it had very small ground clearance,” sources said. “Had the airliner taken a few more minutes to stop both the planes could have collided. Delhi bound passengers and troopers had a miraculous escape.”
The director airport, N V Subbarayudu, while confirming the incident said there was no disruption in the normal functioning at the airport.
