IndiGo flight from Pune to Guwahati makes emergency landing; everyone on board safe

Pune, Nov 15 (UNI) An IndiGo flight from Pune to Guwahati made a safe emergency landing at Pune airport today morning after it developed a technical snag shortly after take-off. The aircraft's landing gear failed to retract, prompting the pilot to alert Air Traffic Control (ATC) and triggering a full emergency protocol at the airport.
The aircraft, operating as flight 6E 0623 (VT-IZE), was carrying a total of 192 people, including passengers and crew members. The pilot informed ATC that the landing gear had remained extended after take-off, leading to immediate emergency response measures by the airport authorities. The aircraft was reportedly flying at an altitude of approximately 31,000 feet when the technical issue was detected.
Following the alert, a full emergency was declared at Pune airport by the Indian Air Force.

Fire engines, ambulances and other emergency response teams were placed on high alert to handle any eventuality.
To assess the condition of the landing gear, the aircraft made a low pass over the runway. After coordinating with all concerned agencies, the pilot successfully landed the aircraft at Pune airport at 9.04 am.
The aircraft was subsequently escorted by three fire engines and two ambulances to bay number 7. After authorities confirmed that the aircraft was safe, the full emergency was withdrawn at 9.10 am.
An aerobridge was connected to the aircraft, and all passengers and crew members were safely evacuated. No injuries were reported, and all 192 people on board were confirmed safe.
IndiGo has arranged an alternative aircraft from Bengaluru to transport the stranded passengers to Guwahati.
The emergency operation was successfully handled through coordinated efforts by the Pune airport administration, Indian Air Force, Air Traffic Control and IndiGo, ensuring the safe return of the aircraft and the safety of everyone on board. UNI SP SS
