The incident occurred during the approach when the plane visibly wobbled and had to perform a go-around due to adverse weather conditions.
The event has been attributed to Cyclone Phengal, which brought heavy rain and gusty winds to the region. In response, Chennai authorities issued a red alert, while coastal areas of India are already experiencing significant flooding.

Due to the extreme weather conditions, airport management was forced to suspend all flight operations until the morning of December 1.

This incident highlights the challenges faced by flight crews during severe weather conditions and the importance of safety measures to prevent disasters.
