Kolkata Airport officials on July 24 announced that flight operations at the Kolkata airport will remain suspended on July 25 and 29, in view of the total lockdown across the state.
“As of now, it has been decided that there will be no flight operations on July 25 and 29,” an official at the Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International (NSCBI) Airport said.
The West Bengal government had imposed a biweekly complete lockdown in the state to check the outbreak of COVID-19 transmission.
When asked if the rule would be extended to all those days when the total shutdown is enforced, the official said that was a possibility, but an announcement in this regard will be made by the state government.
“Most probably, it will be extended to all lockdown days. But the state government will make an announcement. As of now, these two dates have been confirmed. No flights to operate on July 25 and 29,” the official added.
Last week, the state had already barred passenger flights to Kolkata from Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Pune, Nagpur and Ahmedabad till July 31.
