New Delhi: Aviation watchdog, Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), Wednesday said operations at the nine airports, which were shut earlier in the day, have resumed "as of now".
A spokesperson of the DGCA said, "As of now, ops to these airports resumed (sic)."
The DGCA Wednesday issued a notice to airmen (NOTAM), saying flight operations at the airports in Srinagar, Jammu, Leh, Pathankot, Amritsar, Shimla, Kangra, Kullu Manali and Pithoragarh will remain shut from February 27 to May 27.
The move to close the airports had come amid escalation of tensions between India and Pakistan after the IAF carried out strikes on terror bases in Pakistan.
Earlier in the day, some of the flights en route to Jammu, Leh and Srinagar airports were diverted to their origin stations.
Punjab's six border districts of Fazilka, Ferozepur, Tarn Taran, Gurdaspur, Pathankot and Amritsar are on high alert since Tuesday.
Deputy Commissioners and SSPs of border areas have been asked to put in place all contingency plans to ensure protection and safety of citizens, officials said.
