baggage tags are checked manually in india by the loaders compared to computers sorting them out in other airports. its pretty common with air india that bags tagged for ixr go to ixe whose departure time is around the same time at bombay. plus have you seen the baggage make up area? its not a place you would want to be at. its a miracle so many bags actually end up where they are supposed to. also sometimes the bags are loaded on the carts and while being transported to the aircraft, one bag falls off on some road at the airport. and the bag is gone!!!
