A Go First flight, heading from Delhi to Guwahati, was diverted to Jaipur after the A320neo plane's windshield cracked mid-air.

This is the third incident of a technical glitch on a Go First aircraft in two days.

A DGCA official said that the flight was diverted to Jaipur as weather in Delhi was not appropriate.

Earlier, on Tuesday, Go First's Mumbai-Leh and Srinagar-Delhi flights faced technical glitches and both planes were grounded by the aviation regulator.

Scores of flights have been diverted owing to multiple technical snags in Indian carriers' aircrafts during the last couple of days.
