Airspace restrictions will be imposed over the national capital on Sunday from 3 pm to 11 pm due to the swearing-in ceremony of the new government.
These restrictions, however, will not apply to scheduled flights of regular operators, a source revealed.
Additionally, operations of IAF, BSF, and Army aviation helicopters will remain unaffected. State-owned aircraft and helicopters carrying governors or chief ministers will also be exempt from these curbs, as stated in the Notice to Airmen (NOTAM).
Landing or take-off of non-scheduled flights and chartered flights will be prohibited during this period, the source added.
A NOTAM is a crucial notice containing information essential to flight operations.
The swearing-in ceremony for Prime Minister-designate Narendra Modi is scheduled for 7.15 pm at Rashtrapati Bhavan.
Modi will be taking the oath as the head of a coalition government.
The Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) in Delhi, which handles approximately 1,300 flights daily, will be subject to these temporary airspace restrictions.
Despite the curbs, regular scheduled flights will operate without disruption, ensuring minimal inconvenience for air travellers.
