An IndiGo flight from Delhi to Goa had to make an emergency landing at Mumbai airport after an engine failure, as reported by PTI News agency.

This mid-air incident follows the tragic Air India crash in Ahmedabad over a month ago, which claimed the lives of all but one of the 242 people on board and 19 others on the ground, marking India’s deadliest aviation disaster in a decade.

Aircraft declared ‘full emergency’

The IndiGo flight, an Airbus A320neo, safely landed at Mumbai airport at 9:52 pm after declaring a full emergency due to an engine failure.

Details on the number of passengers on board were not immediately available.
