Bangladesh plane grounded in Raipur for 9 years
The New Indian Express
|August 09, 2024
IT'S been over nine years for a Bangladesh-based United Airways plane that made an emergency landing at Raipur and the airport authorities apparently seems perplexed as they didn't receive any feedback to their series of high-priority communication sent to officials of the private carrier and the neighbouring country that now seems in turmoil.
"Forget its take-off from the Chhattisgarh capital, the plane has virtually turned as a huge scrap not fit to fly. During all these years, we haven't received any concrete response or information from Bangladesh regarding the parked aircraft here", a senior officer of Airport Authority of India (AAI) Regional Headquarter told this newspaper.
The parking charges to be paid by the private carrier keep piling up.
"The parking fee is ₹320 per hour. And the charges for the Bangladesh plane have already touched 4 crore", he added.
