GMR under scanner after Delhi airport roof collapse

New Delhi: Delhi International Airport Limited's brand new domestic terminal was dealt a big blow as 40 minutes of rain and strong winds ripped the roof of the new swanky airport terminal 1D.
The terminal built to weather even earthquakes and cyclones came crashing down in the storm and the management was forced to swing into action to ensure passengers were not inconvenienced.
"We called the contractor urgently. They alongside our team is reviewing the situation to understand actually how this has occurred. We are trying to ensure that people can get to the flights as quickly and as safely as possible. Passengers are being provided with free refreshment and beverage facilities," said Andrew Harrison, CEO of DIAL.
Barely a few weeks back, the same terminal roof had sprung leaks during heavy rain.
