The plane was carrying over 275 people, who are safe.
A passenger told ABP News that they were not informed about the emergency landing until the last moment. This suggests that something might have gone wrong during landing.
“Everything was fine before landing. The captain did not warn or caution us during the announcement he made five minutes before the landing. As soon as the plane touched the runway the problem started. I feel there may be some injured passengers,” said Joji, an Indian passengers told ABP News in a telephonic conversation from Dubai airport.
The flight was going from Thiruvanantpuram to Dubai. 225 Indians were on-board the plane.
