Delhi airport: The baggage system at Delhi airport’s Terminal 1 (T1) experienced a temporary glitch on Saturday, but operations were normalised later.

The Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) in the national capital has three terminals — T1, T2 and T3. T1 and T2 are only for domestic flights.

“We experienced a minor momentarily glitch with a section of baggage system at Terminal 1,” Delhi airport operator DIAL said in a post on X at 11.20 am.

Regretting the inconvenience caused to passengers, DIAL said teams worked closely with all stakeholders and that operations are now normalised.

In a post on X at 11.16 am, IndiGo had said that due to a temporary baggage belt issue at T1, passengers may experience slightly longer wait times at check-in and baggage collection.

“Our teams are on-site, working swiftly with airport partners to resolve the situation and assist customers throughout the process,” the airline had said.

Delhi International Airport Ltd (DIAL) is a consortium led by the GMR Group.

From Sarojini Nagar to Yamuna Ghats: Chhath’s journey in Delhi

It was the year 1956. Sarojini Nagar in South Delhi was just beginning to take shape as a new settlement. It was home to central government employees, with a few flats still vacant. Shrikant Dubey, a railway employee, lived with his family in Flat C-155. He was a highly sociable person.

One evening, some of his neighbours from eastern India gathered outside his flat, engaging in casual conversations about various topics. At that time, Jharkhand was still years away from being formed. Someone suggested that they should celebrate Chhath right there in Sarojini Nagar. The idea was well received, and it was decided that the festival would be celebrated in the locality. With about one and a half months left for Chhath, preparations began.
