The series of fake bomb threats in the country’s aviation sector is showing no signs of stopping. On Friday, November 13, 2026, an atmosphere of great panic and chaos was created in a passenger flight of private airline IndiGo going from Hyderabad to Chennai, the capital of Tamil Nadu, when a suspicious tissue paper was found inside the toilet of the plane. ‘Boom 1.50 PM’ was clearly written in English on this tissue paper, seeing which the fear of a bomb in the plane deepened and there was panic among the cabin crew and passengers.
Considering the seriousness of the matter and the safety of the 192 passengers on board the aircraft, the pilot, without wasting a moment, immediately contacted the Air Traffic Controller (ATC) of Chennai Airport and informed about the emergency. Understanding the sensitivity of the situation, the Air Traffic Controller immediately swung into action and allowed the aircraft to make a safe landing (priority landing) on top priority basis at Chennai International Airport at around 1 pm.
According to detailed information received from aviation sources and airport officials, this Indigo passenger flight left for Chennai from Hyderabad airport around Friday afternoon. Shortly after take-off, when the plane was in the air, an alert member of the cabin crew noticed a white tissue paper stuck to the glass inside the toilet of the plane. When the crew member carefully read the words written on it, it was marked ‘Boom 1.50 PM’.
On seeing this suspicious message, the crew member, following the standard safety protocol, immediately informed the Chief Pilot present in the cockpit about the entire incident without creating unnecessary panic among the passengers. The pilot also showed wisdom and immediately contacted the air traffic controller at Chennai Airport, explained in detail about the possible bomb threat in the plane and demanded immediate landing on priority basis, so that the plane could be landed safely before the scheduled time of 1.50 PM.
As soon as the plane landed safely at Chennai airport, airport security agencies, Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) and Bomb Disposal Squad (BDDS) came into full action mode. In accordance with the safety standards, the aircraft was moved to a separate and safe place away from the main terminal building i.e. ‘Remote Bay’, so that in case of any untoward incident, there is no harm to other aircraft or passengers.
After this, all 192 passengers were safely deboarded from the plane. A special team of security personnel along with trained sniffer dogs and modern detection equipment entered the aircraft and searched every part from the cabin to the cargo hold in detail. Along with this, all the passengers and their hand luggage and check-in luggage were also thoroughly checked.
After a very intensive search, technical investigation and investigation into suspicious circumstances that lasted for about an hour at Chennai Airport, when no explosive or suspicious object was recovered from inside the plane, the security personnel and the airport administration heaved a sigh of relief. Security agencies officially declared that the threat of a bomb on the plane was completely baseless and just a hoax.
After completion of the inspection process and security clearance, the aircraft was cleared for normal operations. However, the security agencies are now carrying out a thorough investigation as to which passenger had pasted this tissue paper in the toilet of the plane and for what purpose, so that the accused can be identified and strict legal action can be taken against him under aviation security laws.
