The prime concern is that Sanganer Airport is surrounded by residential colonies

This is a few years late, but I trust everyone has heard of Air India’s experiment where they tried carrying three extra passengers on a flight. Out of the three, one woman was accommodated in the cockpit – modern aircrafts have three seats in the cabin two for the pilot and the co-pilot and one a jump seat that’s usually kept vacant -and two children were made to sit on foldable seats meant for cabin crew during take off and landing. While they are being rapped for violating safety norms, I applaud them for trying out this experiment whilst not ignoring safety norms.
