What happened

In a pioneering move for the 'Viksit Bharat' 2047 vision, the Ministry of Civil Aviation successfully converted the Indian airspace into a static parking lot on February 13-14. By ensuring 1,369 flight delays in a single day, authorities have finally solved the problem of airport overcrowding by keeping passengers exactly where they belong: in a state of perpetual hovering. Ground officials cited 'peak conference season' as the reason, proving that India's infrastructure is so advanced it now operates on a 'one-in, one-out' policy similar to an exclusive Mumbai nightclub.
