An IndiGo flight from Rajasthan’s Jodhpur was ready to leave for Bengaluru this morning. All passengers boarded the aircraft and the cabin crew began the flight safety demonstration, and the take-off was scheduled at 10:10 am. But, suddenly, a passenger pulled the flag and opened the emergency exit door.<\/p>\n

The incident led to a stir onboard the flight and the pilots, and cabin crew initiated the standard operating protocols. The passenger has been arrested and handed over to the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF).<\/p>\n

Siraj Kidwai, who works for Axis Bank, claims he accidentally opened the flap. After the emergency exit was opened, a direct message was sent to the pilot, and security officials later removed the passenger from the plane.<\/p>\n

IndiGo said, “Today, during the safety briefing before the departure of flight 6E 6033 from Jodhpur to Bengaluru, a passenger opened the emergency exit flap. The crew immediately followed standard operating procedures. The passenger was later disembarked and handed over to law enforcement officials for investigation.”<\/p>\n

“We regret the inconvenience caused to other passengers on the flight and reaffirm our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of safety and security in all our operations,” they added.<\/p>\n

The passenger is being questioned by CISF personnel at the airport police station in Jodhpur. The incident caused a 20-minute delay in take-off, reportedly leading to a stir onboard the aircraft.<\/p>\n
