Air India and Indigo Flights Cancelled:Â The increased tension on the border between India and Pakistan is still continuing. Despite the ceasefire, Pakistan is not stopping its activities. Drones are being seen continuously in border areas like Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab and Rajasthan, due to which there is a situation of blackout in these areas. Meanwhile, for the safety of passengers, airline companies are reported to have canceled flights to some sensitive areas. Amid the increasing tension between India and Pakistan, IndiGo and Air India have suspended flights to many cities in North and Western India till May 13.
