Six Delhi-bound flights were diverted to Chandigarh as severe dust storm lashed the capital city on Friday evening.

The Srinagar-Delhi, Mumbai-Delhi, Darbhanga-Delhi flights were diverted to Chandigarh and landed here. One international flight, Kathmandu-Delhi, too, landed at the SBSI Airport here due to bad weather in Delhi.

The Delhi-bound flights diverted towards Chandigarh included flights from Aizawl, Agartala and Dibrugarh.

A few Delhi-bound flights were also diverted to Amritsar.

Two international flights to Delhi from Hong Kong and Kathmandu were diverted to Raja Sansi International Airport in Amritsar.

“Due to inclement weather conditions in Delhi, some of the flights at Delhi Airport are impacted. Passengers are advised to contact their respective airlines for the latest flight updates,” an airport operator posted on X.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
