  "summary": "The civil aviation ministry has issued a show-cause notice to Air India following the incident where three Italian passengers flew out of Delhi without completing immigration formalities. The passengers, who were travelling from Amritsar to Munich via Delhi, did not undergo the required immigration checks at Delhi airport after arriving from Amritsar. The incident occurred on September 4 when the passengers flew on Air India flight AI 1115 from Amritsar to Delhi and subsequently boarded a Lufthansa flight to Munich. However, the passengers did not complete the immigration process at Delhi airport, instead transferring to the international transfer area and boarding the flight without proper clearance. The Ministry of Home Affairs has convened a meeting of stakeholders to discuss the incident, which highlights procedural lapses in the airline's operations under its 'Hub-and-Spoke' model.",
