We recently witnessed the unfortunate event of a fire tragedy in Surat. The incident was surely an eye opener as we have to be extra-cautious about the safety provisions. Riteish Deshmukh recently shared two videos from Hyderabad airport in which we can see the emergency exit of the lounge locked and the only way to go in and out is an elevator which stopped working due to a power cut.
The actor further added that when the security personnel was asked to unlock the door, he refused even if it meant that the passengers would miss their flights. Sharing the video, Riteish captioned the picture as, “So, we were at the Hyderabad Airport Lounge - suddenly the power goes off- the way in & out is an elevator that shuts down. The only exit door is locked in a chain (in case of fire, it’s a tragedy waiting to happen).”
The official Twitter handle of Hyderabad airport tweeted in response to Riteish’s complaint, “We regret the inconvenience caused. It was a minor technical snag which was resolved immediately. Please be rest assured that our airport terminals are safety compliant. In an event of any emergency, the glass doors can be broken. Passenger safety is of utmost importance to us.”
