An IndiGo flight from Mumbai to Guwahati was compelled to make an emergency landing in Dhaka, Bangladesh, at 4 am due to dense fog preventing a safe landing at the Guwahati airport. Passengers, including former Mumbai Youth Congress chief Suraj Singh Thakur, expressed frustration on social media, revealing that they remained inside the aircraft for nine hours. Thakur highlighted the unexpected international border crossing without passports. Another passenger reported a four-hour wait for a new crew. IndiGo acknowledged the diversion due to bad weather, offering apologies and assuring assistance while not specifying the departure time from Dhaka.
