A Delhi-bound flight with over 100 passengers was cancelled on Wednesday after a technical snag reportedly during the 'pushback process,' was noticed, official sources in Chennai said.

When the Air India plane was moved to the designated spot during the usual 'pushback process' the snag was noticed, they said. Following this, the 3.50 PM flight was cancelled and all 138 passengers and the crew were taken off the aircraft. Alternative arrangements are being made for their travel, sources said.

Pushback is a routine procedure to push the aircraft back to a designated spot in the airport.
