The cancelled flights include that of Indigo flights (13), Spicejet (6) and Vistara(3), officials told GNS.

Earlier former chief minister, Omar Abdullah, expressed concern over cancellation of fights.

Not to mention the locals who will have their tickets cancelled & be told to buy fresh ones with fares that touch the stratosphere. Travel in to & out from the valley in winter is not a pleasant experience.
