An Air India flight on Friday landed on a runway which was not commissioned at Velana International Airport, Male, Maldives.
According to an Air India official in New Delhi, the flight operating from Thiruvananthapuram to Male landed on the runway which was under construction at 3.55 p.m. and that all 136 passengers and crew on board the Airbus A320neo aircraft were safe.
