Doing a security check in @DelhiAirport right now. If you are going to Delhi airport perhaps go a day early. Even then you have to be street-smart and loud-mouthed to get your chance. pic.twitter.com/GsI6RSamnk

The chaos at T3 terminal at Delhi International Airport is real.
This is at about 6 am today.
The baggage carousels are full. Same carousel for multiple aircrafts. Luggage lying all over. No place to walk and find your belongings. No trolleys.#DelhiAirport pic.twitter.com/o0SvJgUbJ9
