New Delhi: Aviation regulator DGCA is "examining" the report submitted by budget airline IndiGo on the offloading of 70 passengers in Hyderabad from its Raipur-bound flight allegedly for "unruly behavior" last week.
The incident, fourth such related to IndiGo in the last one month, triggered a controversy with the aggrieved passengers lodging a police complaint, prompting the Directorate General of Civil Aviation to seek a report from the Gurgaon-based carrier, sources said.
"IndiGo has sent a report (on the offloading incident). We need to examine all details," a top DGCA official told PTI here.
An IndiGo spokesperson, however, said that then airline has submitted the report but it is purely on a "voluntary basis" and it wasn't sought by the DGCA.
At least 70 passengers were offloaded from a Raipur-bound Indigo flight at the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport in Hyderabad last Friday for alleged "unruly behaviour".
