According to sources, a Saudia Airlines aircraft from Jeddah carrying 242 Haj pilgrims made an alarm at the airport here on Sunday, when according to sources, its wheels were detected by its wheels while landing.
Aircraft rescue and fire fighting (ARFF) team worked fast to include smoke, allowing the aircraft to prevent any damage. All passengers were safely abolished and flying operations at Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport were continued.
UP’s Minister of State for Minorities Welfare and Chairman of the Haj Committee said on Monday that “there was some technical problem as some sparks were seen from the wheel of the aircraft after the landing.” “There was no problem during the journey. Everyone was comfortable. A minor problem was seen after landing. All the passengers have returned comfortably,” they said in Ballia.
A source told PTI, “Smoke was detected from the wheels of the Saudi aircraft which was bringing back 242 Haj Yatri from Jeddah.” He said, “The ARFF team reached the spot. Working with the Saudi team, smoke was contained and the aircraft was damaged,” he said, the airport operations had no effect.
Sources said, “Aircraft, an airbus, will return to its destination today.”
In response to a question, Ansari said that it is not appropriate to connect the Lucknow incident with Ahmedabad air accident.
“After the landing, the Air Authority paid attention to some technical problems. The authorities solved them. There was no problem anywhere. About 14,000 Haj pilgrims left Uttar Pradesh. This Haj pilgrimage started 50 days ago. We are monitoring it every day. We are making sure that there is no problem,” said Ansari.
