The power went off at the airport and the actor was stuck at the lounge. He shared a video in which the emergency exit remained shut after the power cut and the elevator wouldn't work due to electricity cut. Riteish Deshmukh wrote, "So we were at the Hyderabad Airport Lounge - suddenly the power goes off- the way in & out is an elevator that shuts down. The only exit door is locked in a chain (In case of FIRE???? it’s a tragedy waiting to happen)." Security personnel refuses to give permission to open the door at the cost of passengers missing thief flight.wake up Hyderabad airport Authority- public exits can’t be locked Incase of emergencies pic.twitter.com/JkdzpkX9uk — Riteish Deshmukh (@Riteishd) May 27, 2019 But, the airport authorities quickly responded to Riteish Deshmukh's tweet and wrote, "We regret the inconvenience caused. It was a minor technical snag which was resolved immediately. Please be rest assured that our Airport Terminals are safety compliant. In an event of any emergency, the glass doors can be broken. Passenger safety is of utmost importance to us." Hi Riteish, thank you for your valuable observation. In the current set up, there is a manual lock - the key is placed in a box next to the glass door and can be accessed in case of an emergency. (1/2) — RGIA Hyderabad (@RGIAHyd) May 27, 2019 We appreciate your feedback and agree that the current procedure may be time consuming in case of an emergency. We will immediately look at replacing the manual locks with automatic locks. Once again, apologies for the hassle you had to go through.
