The cause of the accident was not immediately known, while the Boeing plane, which originated from New Delhi, parked on the runway with the tip of its left wing stuck in the side of a building.
The incident comes weeks after an Air India aircraft with 135 passengers and crew on board flew for almost four hours to Dubai with damage to its underbelly and landing gear after hitting a perimeter wall during the takeoff from Tiruchirapally Airport.
