Dog spotted on Ahmedabad Airport runway, raises concerns over security measures

The Ahmedabad Airport recently witnessed a major security breach when a dog was seen running on the runway. The authorities had to deploy four teams to remove the dog from the runway. The incident has raised serious questions about the security measures implemented at the airport.

The Sardar Vallabhbhai Airport in Ahmedabad receives both domestic and international flights, and has faced similar incidents of animal and bird intrusions in the past. Monkeys, stray cattle, and birds have been reported to have caused disruptions and even resulted in flight schedule changes. However, this incident with the dog has sparked public outrage, and the authorities have been criticized for their negligence towards ensuring the safety of passengers and planes.

As per media report, this incedent has also affected the travel plans of seven passengers who missed their flight to the US via Mumbai. They have accused the airport staff of misguiding them, leading them to a different terminal and causing them to miss their flight.

The incident has highlighted the need for stricter safety and security measures at airports to prevent such incidents from occurring in the future.
