KATHMANDU: The Cabinet meeting held today decided to resume flight operations from September 1. Citing the worsening situation due to the rise in the number of COVID-19 cases in the country, the Cabinet postponed the resumption of domestic and international flights.
Earlier on July 20, while announcing the end of the nationwide lockdown, the government had mentioned that it would allow the resumption of both domestic and international flights from August 17. After that decision, stakeholders had begun preparations for resuming flight operations. However, a meeting of the COV- ID-19 Crisis Management Centre held yesterday had recommended that the government postpone the reopening of domestic and international flights, long-distance public vehicles and academic institutions.
