India to probe 5-hour blackout at Delhi airport
India said yesterday it would probe a five-hour electricity blackout at Delhi airport after a new terminal was plunged into darkness, affecting scores of domestic and international flights.
Operations at the 2.7-billion-dollar terminal 3 of the Indira Gandhi International Airport ground to a halt on Sunday morning as the power supply went down and back-up generators failed.
"We will set up a committee to probe Sunday's power failure at Delhi airport," aviation minister Vayalar Ravi said, according to the Press Trust of India news agency.
