Jaipur, June 26 : After making an emergency landing at the Jaipur airport due to bad weather, an Air India pilot flying from London to Delhi refused to fly on Sunday. Around 350 passengers were left stranded at the Jaipur airport for nearly five hours.

Reportedly, the pilot cited flight duty hours as the reason for his refusal to fly.  The passengers had to seek alternative arrangements to reach Delhi due to the incident. The AI-112 flight was scheduled to reach Delhi at 4 am on Sunday but was divered to Jaipur. The flight circled around the sky 10 minutes before being diverted to Jaipur. 

Though the flight received clearance from the Delhi Air Traffic Control (ATC) to resume its journey after two hours of emergency landing, the pilot refused to fly the plane. 

One of the passengers, named Adit, took to Twitter to share the inconvenience caused to the passengers. "Passengers have not been assisted with any recourse to reaching their final destinations," Adit tweeted.
