The Directorate General of Civil Aviation has de-rostered an air traffic controller following a runway incursion involving two Vistara flights. Officials inadvertently gave clearance for crossing and take off of two different aircraft from the same runway – essentially setting the Vistara flights on a collision course. The error was soon rectified with the tower controller asking the Delhi–Bagdogra flight to cancel take off.
