NEW DELHI: It is cheaper to buy a return ticket from Delhi to London than from Delhi to Dharamshala (Gaggal airport) at present. Airfares have skyrocketed due to the ongoing ICC Cricket World Cup which had five matches in Dharamshala. The fourth match on Sunday was held between India and New Zealand, and return fares cost Rs 60,000.
“What would otherwise cost Rs 10,000 (Delhi-Dharamshala round trip) is six times higher. Think of those with medical emergencies, how would they buy a ticket,’’ said a resident of Mc Leodganj.
