A Delhi commercial court has directed Akasa Air to pay Rs 1.08 crore for cancelling 640 confirmed festive-season seats, calling it a clear breach of contract. The Court held that refunding the advance was not enough and the airline must compensate for the travel agent’s loss of profit.
Security at Delhi’s Saket Court is being enhanced after an undertrial’s murder in the lockup on June 5. Two inmates attacked Aman following a dispute. New surveillance measures include restricted gate access and ongoing installation of security equipment, responding to rising violence in court complexes. Gates 1 and 2 will be closed for improvements.
