Scrapped Air India plane spotted while being stuck under overbridge

A scrapped Air India aircraft was apparently stuck under an overbridge in the national capital region while being transported by road on October 2.

A video of the plane being stuck under the overbridge was doing the rounds on the social media on October 3. Details about the aircraft, its buyer and the exact location where the incident happened could not be ascertained.

An Air India spokesperson said it was a deregisteted scrapped aircraft of the airline which has been sold off.

"This was transported last night by the party. Air India has got no connection whatsoever with the aircraft under any circumstances," the spokesperson said.

An official with the Delhi police said that as far as what they have enquired, the incident did not happen anywhere near the Indira Gandhi International airport.

The veracity of the video could not be independently verified.
