Flight operations at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport were disrupted on Friday morning after a technical glitch hit the Air Traffic Control (ATC) system. The glitch caused delays of over 30 minutes on several flights. Passengers told IANS that the airline crew informed them that a technical problem at the ATC was affecting both arrivals and departures. Travellers on delayed flights were advised to remain patient while technical teams worked to restore normal operations.
