Flights Delayed At Delhi Airport, 1 Runway Working, Other Under Repair

Flight operations at Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport faced delays today after the authorities shut one runway for repairs. Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) blamed "limited action/non-action" by airlines for adjusting flight schedules during the planning stage in the last four months for the runway repairs. Multiple airlines' take-offs and landings were delayed because the airport used only one runway, and repairs were happening on the other runway. An unexpected shift in wind direction also aggravated the issue.
