No need to be over sympathetic, they are no friends and have always wished ill upon us.
we have diplomatic relations with our hostile nation and people on board are civilian and we don,t have any enmity with them .what would be their behaviour with us in such conditions, would be similar to ours ,surly, that is an international norm and practice so don,t be so overexcited in your anger.

KARACHI: A Dubai-bound Indian flight with 138 passengers on board made an emergency landing at Karachi’s Jinnah International Airport (JIAP) due to a technical fault developed during the journey.
The sources in the aviation department shared that SpiceJet flight SG-11 encountered a technical issue in Pakistan’s airspace and sought emergency landing permission at the Karachi airport.

They said that the permission was granted on humanitarian grounds at the request of the Indian pilot.
The passengers are not allowed to disembark.
Meanwhile, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) said that the engineers are working to fix the fault and only after their clearance the aircraft will be allowed to fly.
In a statement, the Indian airline stated that SpiceJet B737 aircraft operating flight SG-11 (Delhi - Dubai) was diverted to Karachi due to an indicator light malfunctioning.
“The aircraft landed safely at Karachi. There was no earlier report of any malfunction with the aircraft. Passengers have been served refreshments.”
A replacement aircraft is being sent to Karachi that will take the passengers to Dubai, it added.



Good to see them safe and Karachi did its part.

The irony is that this is the same airport which was the destination of PIA flight 8303 which crashed leaving 97 were shaheed. This prompted wild celebrations on Indian social media that many terrorists were dead and each post received hundreds of thousands of likes, and it wasn't just the sanghi crowd but 'normal' folk at it.

Several months later Air India flight 1344 crashed in Calcutta killing 27 on board. There was silence from these social feeds, but many good Indian posters pointed to how their fellow countrymen had mocked the deaths of people across the border.

Regardless of who it is people should be helped and accidents shouldn't be celebrated.

Agreed, but we should not follow bad reactions shown by few,say hunderds, but should follow our customs and traditions as a human being and as a Muslim too.

Did you get to walk around Delhi airport?
Yes. We were in the plane for about 8-10 hour followed by President-like protocol for each passenger to escort them to the departures lounge. We were able to walk around the departures area for the next 24-30 hour and every member of staff working at the Airport were called on emergency basis. It was gulf Air but we could see staff of every Airline handling our flights passengers and the presence of military was so much that there were 5-10 military officers keeping an eye on every individual.
