The Delhi International Airport Ltd (DIAL), which oversees operations at the Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA), described it as a “stray incident” with no injuries.
The information that has been gathered so far indicates that the bus was not carrying any passengers or luggage at the time. At the time of the occurrence, just the driver was inside the bus. The fire has been brought under control, which is a great news. In the occurrence, no such injuries were reported. The bus will be investigated to determine what caused the fire.
