Jet Airways Bus crashes into stationary Air India flight at Kolkata Airport!

Air India Flight

A Jet Airways shuttle bus driver crashes into the stationary Air India Aircraft at Kolkata Airport (CUU). 

A Jet Airways shuttle bus driver has confessed that he dozed off and crashed into an Air India aircraft at the Kolkata airport early this morning, causing damage worth crores though no one was seriously hurt.

The plane, said to be worth Rs.400 crore, was extensively damaged, says Air India.

The driver, Momin Ali, is likely to be arrested. "He has said that after a night shift, he had fallen asleep and deviated from his route," said airport director AK Sharma.



There were no passengers in the aircraft or on the bus when the incident took place at around 5:25 am.

Airport officials said the plane was parked at Bay no.32 and was preparing to fly to Silchar in Assam. The bus hit the plane near its left wing. A medical exam revealed that the driver was not drunk or on drugs.

The plane has been grounded, according to Air India officials. The airline has cancelled two flights to the North East.

The aviation regulator Directorate General of Civil Aviation has ordered an investigation into the incident, which comes less than a week after an Air India engineer was sucked into the engine of a plane because of what appears to be miscommunication between him and the pilot.

Yuvraj Singh included - India tour of Australia 2016!

Board of Cricket for India (BCCI) made a strong statement by picking India’s dual World Cup winner Yuvraj Singh for India’s tour of Australia. They also dropped Suresh Raina from the team in the 5o-over format and chairman of selectors, Sandip Patil emphasised on the fact that no player will be neglected from the team’s plans going into the T20 World Cup, which will be played later in the year. Ashish Nehra has also made his way back in the side. India will be playing 5 One-Day Internationals and 3 T20s Down Under.

The committee, preceded by Sandip Patil and Anurag Thakur also hinted at the much talked about India vs Pakistan tour not taking place anytime in the near future. There were words of praise for Ashish Nehra, another World Cup winner who got the nod on in the T20s. The left-armer’s consistency in the shortest format was the reason given for his selection. Nehra had a sparkling Indian Premier League (IPL) 2015, where he was one of the leading wicket-takers for the now defunct Chennai Super Kings.

Gurkeerat Singh Mann, the Punjab strokemaker has also been retained in the ODI team. He was in the squad for India’s squad that played South Africa too but didn’t play a single game. Bhuvneshwar Kumar has been restricted to T20s alone, where veteran Harbhajan Singh also finds a place. Gujarat all-rounder Hardik Pandya has been rewarded with a place but it uncertain whether he will find a place. Another all-rounder Rishi Dhawan, who is a part of the Indian set-up for the first time shows the selectors wanting to shore the No 6 spot, which has been a problem for India in the recent past. The tour will start from January 12.

ODI Squad:

Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane, Manish Pandey , Mahendra Singh Dhoni (C), R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammad Shami, Axar Patel, Ishant Sharma, Umesh Yadav, Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Rishi Dhawan, Brainder Sran

T20I squad:

Shikhar Dhawan, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane, Yuvraj Singh, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (C), Suresh Raina, R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohammad Shami, Harbhajan Singh, Umesh Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Ashish Nehra

Chennai rains: IMD predicts heavy rains in TN, Puducherry for next 4 days!

Peoples rescued by boat at Velachery

The govt. has started releasing 20,000 cubic feet per second of water from Chembarambakkam reservoir, the highest volume of outflow in several years.

Heavy rains today pounded several parts of Tamil Nadu and inundating most areas of Chennai, severely disrupting flights, train and bus services and forcing postponment of half-yearly school exams even as the state braced for more showers in next four days.
As the death toll in rain-related incidents touched 188, Chief Minister Jayalalithaaa reviewed the situation and deputed ministers to inspect the affected regions.
Half-yearly exams in schools, which were to have begun on December 7, were postponed. Schools were closed today and will remain shut tomorrow as well.
All flight operations at Chennai airport have been partially suspended until further review and a number of flights have been disrupted as waters inundated the runway and the tarmac. Airport officials said one flight, which had left Colombo this morning, returned. SpiceJet and Indigo tweeted saying the airfield had been closed due to flooding.

Motorists had a tough time as not only arterial roads like Anna Salai and, GST Road were inundated but also many interior roads. Also, many roads were damaged, with several of them caving in inconveniencing motorists.
Puducherry and its suburbs continued to be lashed by heavy rains since last night and it recorded 15.2 cm rain in the last 24 hours ending 0830 hours today.
PTI adds...
Two columns of army’s Garrison Infantry Battalion have been pressed into service in Tambaram and Oorapakkam after the Tamil Nadu government sought military assistance. The Navy is also on stand-by.
National Disaster Rescue Force has already dispatched ten teams of which four are already in Chennai and the rest will be flying in tomorrow. “At the same time, we are also requisitioning teams from Bengaluru and Andhra Pradesh,” NDRF chief O P Singh said.
Rescue work will begin and NDRF would deploy more teams if required. Teams carrying boats will also be sent to Kancheepuram and Tiruvallur districts
Chennai deluged
Chennai City seems to be heading for a crisis of sorts as the government has started releasing 20,000 cubic feet per second of water from Chembarambakkam reservoir into Adyar. This is the highest volume of outflow from the reservoir in several years. On November 17, a day after the city received over 25 centimetres of rainfall, Public Works Department released 18,000 cusecs of water from the reservoir.
Chennai Collector E. Sundaravalli has issued a flood warning and appealed to families living along the Adyar river to move to safer places. Earlier in the day, it was increased to 5,000 cubic feet per second. The outflow was just 900 cusecs on Monday evening.

After pounding and battering the city for a month, heavy rains resumed overnight on Monday after a brief break for four days. For the 24 hours ending 8.30 a.m. on Tuesday, the rainfall level recorded in the city was 3 centimetres. Between morning and noon, the city received more than 8 centimetres, officials said.
Suburban train services on the Chennai Beach-Tambaram sector were crippled. Services on the Chennai Central-Tiruvallur sector were also disrupted. Arterial roads were flooded and traffic was affected.
Expect more rain
Heavy rains lashed parts of Tamil Nadu, including Chennai, and neighbouring Puducherry, disrupting flight movement and leaving several areas inundated.
The picture looks no better for Wednesday with the weather office forecasting heavy to very heavy rainfall for Tamil Nadu, especially over the northern districts of Chennai, Tiruvallur and Kancheepuram.
It also forecast heavy rains for Puducherry.
“The trough of low pressure now lies over Southwest Bay adjoining Sri Lanka off Tamil Nadu,” officials at the Regional Meteorological Centre (RMC) told PTI.
Under its influence, widespread rains are expected across the State on Wednesday, with the possibility of “scattered heavy to isolated very heavy rainfall over coastal districts,” they said.
The weather office forecast “isolated extremely heavy rainfall” for Chennai, Kancheepuram and Tiruvallur which have been already been facing the brunt of the northeast monsoon since last month.
Schools, colleges shut
A holiday has been declared on Tuesday for educational institutions in these districts, which have been experiencing heavy downpour, officials said.
In Chennai, office-goers found it tough to make it to their workplaces on time with the incessant rains resulting in water-logging in several areas. Many of them opted to travel by state government buses, suburban train services and Metro Rail.
Most roads were left in a damaged state, with motorists finding it hard to negotiate potholes.
Satellite image recorded by INSAT 3D at 1600 hours on Tuesday.
At Adyar, a part of the road near the Madhya Kailash intersection had caved in on Monday, prompting authorities to redirect traffic on the busy stretch.

Chennai floods: Once again, social media is helping Indians while the government flounders!

#CHENNAIRAINSHELP - Twitter HashTag
Chennai, in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu, is battling its worst rains in a century. Over the last month, the capital city has been transformed from a bustling hub of over 4.5 million people to a partly submerged wreck.

Already 188 people have died in Tamil Nadu due to rain-related incidents, and thousands have been forced to evacuate from their homes. “State police, fire and rescue services, state and national disaster response forces and coast guard are ready to rescue people using boats,” Tamil Nadu chief minister, J.Jayalalithaa, said yesterday (Dec. 1). “Adequate precautionary measures are being taken to protect people.”

But as the government flounders, ordinary citizens are coming together on social media to either send or seek help. The online effo
rt is similar to what happened in March 2015, when the north Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir was hit by massive floods. People who wanted help, or could help, used #KashmirFloods to connect on Twitter and Facebook.

Since yesterday, #ChennaiRainsHelp and #ChennaiFloods have become among the most used hashtags on Twitter in India, utilised to offer shelter, food, transport, and even mobile recharges.
crowdsourced effort to map inundated roads in Chennai has been undertaken on social media. Over 2,400 flooded roads have been added to the city’s map, which was put together by engineer and information designer, Arun Ganesh.
