The Indigo flight, which was carrying 272 passengers, was redirected back to Nagpur due to a bird strike. The flight 6E812 took off from Nagpur heading to Kolkata. There were a total of 272 passengers on board this flight. While the aircraft was in mid-air, it collided with a bird. It appears that the front section of the aircraft sustained damage. Consequently, shortly after takeoff, the flight was diverted back to Nagpur instead of continuing to Kolkata. The aircraft was urgently and unexpectedly landed at Nagpur Airport. The passengers were safely disembarked. Subsequently, when the airport security team inspected the aircraft, they discovered that the front section had sustained damage. Authorities are currently conducting an ongoing investigation regarding this matter.
