Soon after West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s chartered flight experienced "mid-air turbulence" while she was returning to Kolkata from Uttar Pradesh, she admitted that it was the prompt action of the pilot that averted a head-on collision. The Bengal government had on March 5 sought a report from the DGCA after Banerjee's aircraft encountered turbulence, leaving her back and chest injuries.
