Six passengers were on board. Five of them had sustained minor injures and were admitted to the Tata Main Hospital.
The airport became operational and a flight from Delhi landed in the evening after the damaged aircraft, which was stationed near the runway, was carried away with a crane,
Earlier in the morning, a team from the director general of civil aviation’s regional office, in Calcutta, (DGCA) inspected the aircraft. According to sources, another team from the DGCA will arrive at the steel city tomorrow morning to conduct a final inspection and ascertain the cause behind the incident.
