After a passenger on an indigo flight physically attacked the pilot of the plane while he was announcing a delay, the drama at delhi Airport intensified on Sunday. social media users are criticizing the passenger in a video of the incident for choosing to physically assault others, and the footage is quickly becoming viral.

A passenger wearing a yellow sweatshirt was seen in the widely shared video approaching and violently striking the pilot of the plane. The pilot was announcing a delay when the incident happened. After several hours of delay, the pilot took over the previous crew due to Flight Duty Time Limitations (FDTL) regulations.

Anup Kumar Co-Pilot Flight No. 6E2175 and security arrived at the police station with a complaint against Sahil Katriya, a passenger on a flight scheduled to depart from delhi for Goa, who had abused and mistreated him. He slapped the co-pilot when he misbehaved while in flight. In this regard, a complaint was filed,” delhi police said.
