THIS is the shocking moment a woman allegedly threatened to crash a plane in India during a row with cabin staff.

The incident comes just days after the tragic Ahmedabad disaster, in which at least 270 people sadly died.

In a now viral clip, a woman can be seen yelling at passengers and crew on board the flight.

The row is reported to have taken place on an Air India Express flight from Bengaluru to Surat.

A woman, identified as Dr Vyas Hiral Mohanbhai, 36, was taken off the flight and detained by police following the incident on Tuesday, the Indian Express has reported.

She reportedly left her bag in the front row of the plane before making her way to her seat 20 F.

The plane had been due to take off at around 2.30 pm.

But when cabin crew objected to where she had placed her bag and asked her to stow it in her overhead locker, she refused, according to NDTV.

She is said to have instead insisted that cabin crew move her bag to her seat for her.

But despite requests from the crew and an intervention from the captain, she still declined to comply – leading to the chaotic row.

She also shouted at passengers who attempted to reason with her.

The situation then escalated further when she allegedly yelled threats about crashing the plane, local media has reported.

This prompted the crew to alert security, who removed her from the flight.

She was subsequently booked by Bengaluru International Airport Limited police.

A dramatic video of the alleged incident has circulated online, which shows a woman shouting at crew and fellow passengers – despite their best efforts to pacify her.

The cabin crew can be seen trying in vain to calm her down, while some passengers also attempt to intervene.

At one point, the woman can even be seen appearing to strike another passenger.

It took place on a flight operated by Air India Express, which is a subsidiary of Air India.

The incident comes days after the horrifying crash of Air India flight 171 in Ahmedabad last week.

All passengers and crew – except for one miracle survivor – died in the crash, which killed at least 270 people.

The Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner had been en route to London Gatwick, but crashed less than a minute after take-off.

India’s Ministry of Civil Aviation said the tragic incident remains under investigation and that more information will be provided in due course.
