More to the story...

We have suspended both the pilots of that flight, 9W 555, operated on a Boeing 737-800 (VT-JFA). We are reviewing the fuel uplift policy of Jet Airways to check that right amount of fuel is filled on aircraft and that there are no cuts being made on that front

The DGCA is investigating that the diversion airport for the Doha-Kochi flight was listed as Bengaluru and so why did it go to Thiruvananthapuram.
METAR for Bengaluru at the time:

VOBL 180100Z 00000KT 6000 FEW010 25/25 Q1014 NOSIG
VOBL 180000Z VRB02KT 6000 SCT010 SCT080 25/25 Q1014 NOSIG
