In a significant move, India has extended the ban on Pakistani aircraft from entering its domestic airspace. The decision was announced on Tuesday from Delhi and the ban will continue until August 23. This extension affects all flights originating from or destined for Pakistan within Indian airspace.
The ban was initially imposed due to ongoing diplomatic tensions between India and Pakistan. Indian authorities have stated that the measure is to ensure national security and maintain strict control over the country’s airspace. Airlines operating from Pakistan have been forced to change their flight paths, leading to longer routes and increased operational costs.
Aviation experts suggest that the continued ban may impact regional air connectivity and passenger travel between the two countries. Both governments have yet to comment on any potential discussions to resolve airspace restrictions.
This extension reinforces India’s firm stance on aviation security amid the complex geopolitical scenario. The aviation industry is now closely monitoring the developments to adjust flight operations accordingly.
