@IndiGo6E MHB T1D Delhi told me on call right now that the baggage cannot be found in Terminal 2.
This is sheer negligence, whereas I mentioned the staff numerous times it has expensive equipments worth more than 5000$. @IndiGo6E

[Pritam Roy @pritamroybbc]

The baggage consists of camera equipments belonging to BBC News India. My shoots have been delayed and when I called MHB T1D today morning at 7.30am, they are still unsure if it arrived at Terminal 2 Delhi. @IndiGo6E

[Pritam Roy @pritamroybbc]

I was promised at the airport that the baggage would be delivered to my address as it is Indigo’s fault.
But I kept calling MHB INDIGO TERMINAL 1D New Delhi and i was told the baggage has arrived at Terminal 2 but we are not able to contact them.

The BBC has pieced together evidence of a civilian massacre in Myanmar. Scores of Rohingyas killed. Survivors blame insurgent Arakan Army, the group denies it.Thousands have fled to Bangladesh in the past 2 weeks. These are some of their harrowing stories. https://t.co/LoJ7mOC8LE

The blistering heat has impacted the livelihoods of India’s informal workforce, who make up half the country’s economy. Now, an organisation in Gujarat is offering female labourers “heatwave insurance” which pays for days when temperatures breach a pre-fixed threshold.

All those asking @Phogat_Vinesh to return her prize money, hey, don’t forget she earned it with sweat and toil Why don’t you step into an akhara and win medals for India.. only a sportsperson knows the hard work and sacrifice it involves to become an elite athlete. Character assassination is easy, playing sport for India sure isn’t!🙏
