On May 25, 2025, a canopy at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport collapsed during heavy rainfall, triggering widespread criticism and political commentary. The Kerala Congress posted a video of the incident with the caption “Vikas overflows in Delhi Airport after a drizzle,” mocking the government's infrastructure claims. Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) clarified that the collapse was due to a safety design to manage water overflow, not a structural failure. The incident has renewed concerns about urban infrastructure quality and the government's preparedness for climate-related challenges.
