Such squawk codes (emergency alerts) are often heard during emergency situations, such as emergency landing etc. Squawk codes are used by Air Traffic Control (ATC) to identify and track aircraft in flight.

These squawk codes are usually 4 digits long, ranging from 0000 to 7777. Some of these codes are fixed and displayed in specific situations, while others are displayed by ATC.

ATC creates squawk codes for aircraft when the aircraft enters its range, then sends a message to the pilot to allow entry into the aircraft's transponder. The transponder then sends it back to ATC.

Air India flight AIC129 had squawk code 7500, which is an emergency transponder code indicating that the aircraft was in danger and needed immediate assistance from ATC and other safety measures.
