After a limited start to railway services, the focus has now turned to the aviation sector with airports and airlines gearing up for a resumption of flights after the lockdown to combat COVID-19 is scheduled to end on May 17.
The Civil Aviation Ministry has been in talks with the airline companies which are staring at huge financial losses because of the shutdown of commercial passenger flights in the last week of March.
Officials of the Civil Aviation Ministry, Directorate General of Civil Aviation, Bureau of Civil Aviation Safety, Airports Authority of India, Central Industrial Security Force and Delhi International Airport Limited visited the Delhi airport on Monday to review the preparedness before the resumption of flights.
