Emergency landing at IGI after bird hit

BHUBANESWAR: A Bhubaneswar-bound flight was forced to make an emergency landing at IGI airport in city following a bird hit on Sunday. The accident caused a gaping hole on the nose of the Air India flight IC-877.

Air India authorities said the flight safely landed back at the New Delhi airport and no one was injured. Sources said the flight was expected to land in Bhubaneswar at 1.20pm.

"After flying for 20 minutes, the pilot announced emergency landing back at IGI. It safely landed and no one was hurt," said BJP leader Murli Sharma, who was in the flight. "After landing, we saw there was a deep hole on the nose of the plane," Sharma added.

On November 3, a Delhi-bound flight returned to Biju Patnaik airport a few minutes after taking off owing to a bird hit. All passengers were safe.

Bird menace has become a frequent problem with 12 such cases reported this year. Officials said birds are often attracted to the city airport as its periphery is littered with remnants of dead animals because of slaughter houses in the vicinity.

A month ago, chief secretary B K Patnaik had directed officials to initiate measures to stop bird menace, considering the state government's bid to fetch the city airport an international tag. Official sources said efforts were on to shift the slaughter houses to new locations.
