London-bound Air India flight returns to Delhi after technical issue
A London-bound Air India flight (AI 111) returned to Delhi on Thursday afternoon after being airborne for nearly seven hours following a technical glitch. Flightradar data showed that the A350 aircraft, en route to Heathrow airport, made a turnaround while it was flying over Saudi Arabian airspace.

The matter pertains to a petition filed by one Nikhil Kumar Punia, who was born into an upper-caste Hindu family but supposedly converted to Buddhism later. He, along with another General Category candidate, has sought minority reservation benefits for admission to a Buddhist medical college on grounds of their purported conversion.

Energy disruption due to the war in the Middle East has exposed India's dependence on imported gas. It has prompted a policy shift mandating a switch from LPG to piped natural gas (PNG) where available. With supply constraints looming, the government is fast-tracking pipelines and pushing a nationwide transition to strengthen energy security.
