Patna, Jan 3 (SocialNews.XYZ) A Patna-Delhi IndiGo flight (6E2074) on Wednesday made an emergency landing minutes after take-off from the Jay Prakash Narayan International Airport here after developing a technical glitch.
The flight was carrying 187 passengers, including rebel JD-U MP Sunil Kumar Pintu and Bihar Water Resources Minister Sanjay Kumar Jha.

“All passengers are safe,” Jha added.
