The minister was accompanied by senior officials, including MoCA Secretary Samir Kumar Sinha and AAI Chairman Vipin Kumar. He directed ECIL CMD to deploy more engineers for quick restoration. Naidu also ordered additional ATC staff to handle manual operations and minimize passenger inconvenience during the downtime.

Teams from AAI, Air Navigation Services, and ECIL worked around the clock to identify and fix the fault. By the afternoon of November 8, engineers fully restored the Automatic Message Switching System (AMSS). As a result, all flights resumed without further cancellations. The ministry said safety and passenger convenience remained top priorities throughout the process.

Later, Naidu visited the ATC Tower to inspect routine operations and praised the teams for their commitment. He instructed officials to conduct a root-cause analysis and plan technological upgrades, including backup servers, to prevent similar disruptions in the future.

Airport officials explained that strong light beams can disorient pilots, cause glare, and trigger temporary flash blindness, increasing landing errors. Night conditions make eyes more sensitive, intensifying the danger. Several incidents have already been reported and flagged to police.

The problem is mainly linked to private establishments, including party halls and hotels, around the airport. Officials stressed that even accidental use of lasers endangers aviation safety. They have urged the police to strengthen surveillance and patrols, especially in areas like Chinniyampalayam and Neelambur during evenings.

The Airports Authority of India recommended public warnings, cautionary signage, and awareness drives to educate residents about legal and safety risks. City police are coordinating with airport authorities to ensure enforcement and sensitisation campaigns. Officials emphasized that safe landings require uninterrupted visibility and any distraction, even momentary, can compromise aviation safety.
