Democratic Progressive Azad Party (DPAP) chief Ghulam Nabi Azad, whose Delhi-Srinagar flight was cancelled, expressed frustration, stating that passengers were left stranded for hours without prior notice. He said, "I was supposed to leave in the morning. But I am now leaving on an IndiGo flight after sitting here for 3-4 hours...If the flights were cancelled, they should have informed us in the morning itself. Why did they fool everyone?...Air India (Express) should be shut...their basic culture is bad, nothing will become of it."
