Indian plane made emergency landing in Pakistan

An Air India plane made an emergency landing in Pakistan on Monday after experiencing a technical problem.

The Air India aircraft carrying 130 passengers and crew members landed safely at Nawab Shah Airport in southern Pakistan, said civil aviation spokesman Pervaiz George.

Pakistani officials were told to do everything needed to help the stranded passengers, George said. India sent a second plane that flew the passengers and crew back home.

Eight Indian aviation officials who arrived with the second aircraft will stay in Pakistan to do the repair work on the faulty plane and then fly it back to India, he said.
