The federal government has been having trouble getting international flights scheduled to begin on December 15. This decision has been reported to be subject to review by the omicron type corona virus found in South Africa.
International passenger flights to India from abroad have been suspended since March 2020, at a time when the corona virus infection is spreading rapidly around the world. The ban was extended to November 30, 2021.
At the same time, the airline operates with restrictions to only 28 countries. In this situation, it was demanded that the international airline should be restarted as before.
Following this, the Government of India has been in talks with more than 25 countries in an effort to operate international flights.
This is the first time this has happened in South Africa on the 24th Omicron type virus Diagnosed by the World Health Organization. The virus was later found in Hong Kong, Botswana and Israel.
As a result, international flights have been delayed from December 15. An emergency consultative meeting chaired by Home Secretary Ajay Balla was held in the capital Delhi today. It was decided that in the current context, the launch of international flights from December 15 could be reconsidered. In addition, it was decided to subject those from South Africa, Hong Kong, Botswana, Israel and China to intensive surveillance and isolation.
