Chaos at Delhi airport after baggage handling system misplaces thousands of bags

haos prevailed at Terminal 3 of Indira Gandhi International Airport here today as hundreds of passengers faced delays in baggage clearance, leading to long queues and flight delays.
The problem in the baggage handling system affected flight operations, with Vistara Airline issuing a statement late in the evening, saying bags were not being loaded on to the flights and that the airline had taken up the issue with the airport officials.
Vistara operates from the terminal along with Air India and international operators.
The GMR-led Dial International Airport Ltd, the airport operator, attributed the delay in baggage clearance to an increased level of dangerous goods particularly power banks and lighters being carried by passengers in checked-in luggage. This incident rate was 30 per cent higher than average days as the rush was more because of the long holiday weekend.
