Flights cancelled as bad weather continues to halt proceedings in Kashmir

Several flights were cancelled in Kashmir Wednesday due to snowfall and bad weather conditions, an official said. "The flight operations at Srinagar airport have been hit due to bad weather since Wednesday morning," an official of the Airports Authority of India (AAI) said. He said the snowfall which intensified in the afternoon led to cancellation of many flights. "Two flights were able to operate on Wednesday morning. However, due to bad weather, it was not possible to operate other flights – several of whom have been cancelled," the official said. He said the chances of flight operations resuming in the later part of the day looked "minimal".
