Mangaluru: Chaos erupted at Mangaluru International Airport (MIA) after IndiGo flight 6E 5150, bound for Mumbai, was repeatedly delayed and ultimately cancelled, leaving around 100 passengers stranded overnight. The incident highlights the ongoing country-wide operational disruptions affecting the airline, largely due to the implementation of new Flight Duty Time Limitations (FDTL) norms for crew.
The flight was initially scheduled for 9:25 PM on Tuesday but was first postponed to 11:40 PM, then midnight, before being cancelled around 3:00 AM. Passengers expressed frustration over last-minute communication and the lack of clarity, with elderly and ailing travellers particularly affected. “Though the airline arranged food, there was no proper communication, leaving us confused,” said one family member.
An IndiGo executive at MIA cited the FDTL rules, designed to prevent pilot fatigue by limiting crew working hours, as the cause of the cancellation. While alternative arrangements, including hotel stays, were offered, about 100 passengers chose to remain at the airport, creating tension. A replacement flight was arranged but also faced delays due to the same constraints, finally departing for Mumbai around 1:45 PM on Wednesday. Passengers either flew, requested refunds, or postponed their travel.
The Mangaluru delay is part of a broader crisis for IndiGo. The airline has been forced to make “calibrated schedule adjustments”—a euphemism for widespread cancellations and delays—after stricter FDTL norms came into effect on November 1.
While an IndiGo spokesperson acknowledged unavoidable flight disruptions due to technology issues, operational requirements, and the updated crew rostering rules, the DGCA has intervened, summoning senior airline officials to explain the chaos and outline corrective measures.
The ripple effect has been felt across the country, with major hubs like Bengaluru and Mumbai reporting numerous cancellations. The Mangaluru incident underscores the systemic operational strain currently confronting India’s largest carrier, leaving passengers nationwide grappling with uncertainty and delays.

Namasthe to all.Islam,Jewish Religion and Christianity are Semitic religions.They do not consider other religions as religions.Yehovah and Allah are none other than LORD SHIVA.MOSES' tomb is in KASHMIR.
JESUS CHRIST'S TOMB is in KASHMIR.KA'ABA IN MECCA IS A ShIVA TEMPLE. ANGEL GABRIEL IS NONE OTHER THAN GODDESS PARVATI. In HINDU religion GOD is formless and merciful to all people irrespective of their creed and race. Jews and Arabs are originated in Bharat. ABRAHAM AND SARAH ARE LORD BRAHMA AND GODDESS SARASWATI. NOAH IS NONE OTHER MANU THE PROGENITOR OF HUMAN KIND. HINDUS should deeply study their religion and other religions.
Happy to read the news. Here is a beautiful website for Muslims and non-Muslims: www.islamicsolutions.com
Happy to read the news.
All religion is a manual for human kind to follow the guidelines of righteousness.These all religions are part of Gods revelation and we humans have intepreted for our own benefits.Hence there is variations and divisions.Those don't trust then one should do the research and conclude, rather puting your own knowledge based on assumptions.

All praise to The Creator Who has saved His slave from hell fire.
Any one who search for truth and try to find out the reality of himself and universe will ultimately embrace Islam. As no religion except Islam gives the scientific and logical answer to the creation of universe. So the requirement is only to educate people and develop a sense to search for truth and not live the life of animal without thinking of beginning and end of this universe.
Welcome to Islam
My dear beloved brother.
Right choice Right Direction
Allah's blessing you to show the right path to reach the paradise
ALLAHU AKBAR! Welcome this brother to the Religion of Rabbil A'alameen, Allah the Eternal and Absolute!!

Dear friend its a pleasant news, Subanallah may Alllah Almighty bless you with all his bounties Insha Allah now definitely you will realise what is islam and why islam called as religion of peace and humanity.
Dear Nagaraj Ramarao... (#35)
When U say there is no GOD but ALLAH and Muhammad pbuh is the messenger of GOD... All your sins are forgiven even if it is as big as a mountain...ALLAH is most forgiving and Most merciful...
It is better for you to look Who is ALLAH and the teachings of Prophet Muhammad pbuh.. If you read QURAN...U will be introduced to the REALITY of this LIFE ... and there is a special message from God directly to YOU and ME .. who is the CREATION of HIM. It is the best blessing one should have to connect with the CREATOR. So i request all non muslims to read with open heart \ the message of the CREATOR 'The QURAN'\"
When ALLAH forgives him Who are WE to throw Him... Everything is in the hands of ALLAH and those who are blessed with the knowledge of TRUTH are blessed...Cos people who keep HATRED and EVIL are in DARKNESS from this BLESSINGS ... and we SEE lot of HATRED and EVIL coming out of RSS headquarters which many youth follow BLINDLY without knowing the REALITY of LIFE."
commentors like vijay some say, he is one terror group to another terror group, now u have shiva sene terror group before its not. first clean ur hatred heart
as UMAR KHATTHAB (R.A)
Nepal is hindu country Right? Why there is Murder Rape Etc if you want to Know Islam dont see the country see the quran and study the life of prohet muhammed (saw) and his companions
I know some people can't take this in. Isn't it foolish to think that each and everything in this world as god???

All those indulge in terrorism activities carrying Muslim names are not true followers of Islam and they are misled just like you are
So wake up pal and understand Islam and I invite to embrace Islam
he is weak person. he blamed islam . islam should throw him out
he ditched hindu , he ditched his parents. selfish fellow. he want to get seat from political party
islam should not accept him. he told once he will throw islam
all religions are supreme. He is a weak person, he should have fought
islam should throw him out. he is selfish, and he will ditch islam
though he does not believe himself, he is a traitor. he want seat from other party.
Messenger of ALLAH, MUHAMMAD pbuh, said \He who becomes good in Islam, will not be punished for what he committed during his Jahiliyyah (before ISLAM). He who become bad in Islam, will face a punishment for his previous and later deeds\"."
AaHLaan Waa SaahLaan ya Akhiii
May ALLAH give HIDAYAH to the rest of GOONS
Pakistan is a republic country not an Islamic sharia (law) following country.If Islam was spread & preached by sword as some people think it would not be the fastest growing religion in US,Europe..I remember a conference held in Chennai by Dr.Zakir Naik in which he requested to Hindu brothers to preach Sanskrit to their children & made an appeal to then ruling party of INDIA BJP & requested to Bjp's NDA chief MR.LAL KRISHNA ADVANI & PM of our country at that period MR.ATAL BIHARI VAJPAYEE to make Sanskrit compulsory in schools so that everyone can read VEDAS. Hindu brothers please read your authentic vedas then read QURAN & dont fall prey to political people. MIM leader Asad uddin Owaisi is a straight forward practicing Muslim who don't fears RSS & its ideologies .may I know a single freedom fighters name from RSS.
Brothers who ever comment here against Sushil Kumar Jain's decision. Hazrath Umar was a staunch enemy of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) who set out in a morning to kill him wielding sword in his hand. But previous night prophet asked to the creator of the universe to assist him by giving straight path to one of the two either Abu Jahal or Umar. Almighty has accepted his prayer and gave Islam to Umar. We wont even wonder if Modi or Ram Bagawath accepts Islam. It is all in His hand. We just keep going peacefully on the way of our prophet Muhammed peace be upon him.
The brothers who comment negative to Sushil Kumar Jain's decision should understand here one thing. This kind of miracle is in the hands of the creator. Umar the staunch enemy of our prophet Muhammad who set out to kill him wielding the sword in his hand. But previous night prophet prayed to Allah to assist him with one of the two either Abu Jahal or Umar. Allah accepted prophet's prayer and gave straight path to Umar. Even we Muslims wont wonder if Ram Bagawath or Modi accepts Islam. It is all in His hand.
Masha Allah. It's good to see people are accepting Islam. Alhamdulillah.
This is just the beginning we are gonna witness many more in coming days in sha Allah. May Allah guide us all into the right path.
This is just the begining, we are gonna witness many more.. May allah guide us all to right path..
So a guy who is disappointed with his party because he didn't get what he wanted, converts to Islam as a publicity stunt and retards here are going alhamdulillah, mashallah as if he has done this sincerely. No wonder people think you are morons.
He finally understood the religion.
masha allah.. islam is best religion to follow..but mostly followers are not good..they are only muslim by name..not trying to understand the real islam..
ALLAH O AKBAR
Ghar vapasi without any provocation
Pakistan is an Islamic country right? I see all you guys says Islam is purity and peace...why so much of violence there?Can somebody justify this?
I have seriously no issue in people selecting his religion but the post here are just sick.
Wow Amazing. Allahu Akbar
Alhamdulillah
Shreyas Jain, Dont get jealous....Muslims will not offer any money...people come to the fold of Islam because it spreads only peace and tranquility....and they understand truth....
ALHAMDULLILLAH (Thanks to ALLAH)... ALLAHU AKBAR (God is GREATEST)
There is NO GOD but ALLAH..& MUHAMMAD pbuh is the LAST & FINAL messenger & Slave of ALLAH.
Prophet Muhammad pbuh taught us
There is only one God ALLAH
There were many prophet sent by ALLAH to convey this message to the People.
He selected the prophet from their own group to convey this message of ONENESS...
In SHAA ALLAH in near future... we will see more enemies of present INDIA will follow when they come to know the REALITY of ONE GOD
When we know the REALITY of TRUTH, they will know that those who WORSHIP man made Gods are in FALSE.
Dear HINDU brothers ... READ QURAN and UNDERSTAND what it says if U are really honest ... ALLAH will GUIDE U ALL>>.. & U will surely RECOGNIZE the devils of the SOciety which is encouraging YOU to commit violence... Please read QURAN and THINK & PONDER what it SAYS.
