Chennai International and Domestic Airport has become a nightmare for frequent flyers, as the airport has been plagued with numerous instances of falling false ceilings and glass panels, since its inauguration in 2013.
On March 30, 2016, glass panels from the ceiling came crashing down at two different places at the airport, according to S K Saamy, an advocate in the Supreme Court, and a regular user of the Chennai airport.
He also stated that such incidents have occurred 61 times in the last three years.
SK Saamy has filed a petition on the matter to Justice D Murgesan, a National Human Rights Commission member.
The Chennai International and Domestic Airport was inaugurated on January 31, 2013, following which the domestic terminal began functioning in April and the international terminal started functioning in July, 2013.
And almost from the start, the problems began. On May 12, more than 20 panels of the false ceiling collapsed near the security hall at the domestic terminal. Back then, the officials had blamed strong winds and thunderstorms for the mishap.
