A portion of the roof, canopy and several beams at the domestic terminal 1 collapsed after heavy rain on June 28.NEW DELHI — New Delhi's main domestic terminal is likely to remain shut for a few weeks with debris still scattered outside the airport following last week's roof collapse, two sources with direct knowledge of the matter told Reuters on July 1.
The recently expanded terminal is mostly used by low-cost carriers IndiGo and SpiceJet, and has a capacity to handle 40 million passengers annually, but its closure is set to increase pressure on two other terminals from where domestic flights also operate. GMR said in a statement that it was "too early" to provide details of when the terminal could resume operations.
