Gandhi was scheduled to land at Patna airport and then proceed to Samastipur.
This is not the first time the Congress chief has faced aircraft trouble. A Falcon 2000 luxury business jet carrying him from Delhi to Hubli in Karnataka on April 26 last year had developed a computer snag while at 41,000 feet, causing a mid-air scare. (ANI)
