In two separate cases on Tuesday, GoAir flights, also known as Go First, were diverted to Delhi and Srinagar due to technical glitches in the engines.GoAir A320 aircraft VT-WGA flight G8-386 from Mumbai to Leh was diverted to Delhi, and GoAir A320 aircraft VT-WJG flight G8-6202 from Srinagar to Delhi was turned back to Srinagar due to EGT over-limit in the engine.The first plane was diverted to Delhi due to an EIU (Engine Interface Unit) fault in engine number 2. A senior official said that Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is investigating the incidents and both the planes have been grounded and will fly only when cleared by the regulator.Scores of flights have been diverted owing to multiple technical snags in numerous Indian carriers' aircraft in the last couple of days.
