There was no chance of a collision to say it was averted," Air India spokesperson Chandra Kumar told IANS."Reporters who had absolutely no idea of TCAS have made these reports. None of the airlines can be blamed in this case," he added.Jet Airways spokesperson Ragini Chopra told IANS: "It was not a near collision or anything. Steps were taken by pilots on the TCAS alarm... DGCA (Directorate General of Civil Aviation) will enquire and take any action if needed." .
