In 1999, Indian Airlines Flight IC-814, an Airbus A300 traveling from Kathmandu to Delhi with 172 passengers, was hijacked—unfolding one of India’s worst aviation nightmares. For over a week, the aircraft was flown from Amritsar to Lahore, then to Dubai, and finally Kandahar. What followed was a tense battle of diplomacy, rescue efforts, and critical decisions—some managed well, others heavily criticized. The outcome of this crisis not only shook the nation but also triggered major geopolitical shifts, eventually linking to the 9/11 attacks and the 2001 Indian Parliament attack.
