New Delhi: Amid rising tensions in Ukraine, the Union Ministry of Civil Aviation has lifted restrictions on the number and seating of flights between India and Ukraine to help rescue Indians from there.
Many transportation companies have been canceling flights to Ukraine due to the threat of war, making it difficult for foreigners to return to their home countries.
Bala made a request to the Indian embassy there regarding the air shortage. A statement from the Indian embassy said, “Students should not panic over the lack of space on the plane. Steps are being taken to operate the required number of flights to India.
In this context, the Federal Ministry of Civil Aviation has lifted restrictions on flights and seats operated between India and Ukraine.
A senior official of the Union Ministry of Civil Aviation said on Thursday that restrictions on the number of flights and seats operated between India and Ukraine were being lifted. The move is based on a special agreement on air transport between the two countries. This allows them to operate as many aircraft as they need. ‘
Regular international flights have been canceled due to the Omicron threat. Overseas specialized flights are operated based on demand. In this situation, due to the tension in Ukraine, Indian students and others there are planning to return home.
