NEW DELHI: SpiceJet on Thursday issued a travel advisory as heavy rains disrupted flight operations in Delhi. The airline cautioned passengers that weather conditions could lead to delays and cancellations across its network. “Due to bad weather in Delhi (DEL), all departures/arrivals and their consequential flights may be affected. Passengers are requested to keep a check on their flight status,” SpiceJet said in a statement.
The advisory came as heavy downpours lashed parts of Delhi-NCR on Wednesday, adding to the city’s weather challenges. The India Meteorological Department forecast “generally cloudy sky with moderate rain” for the capital, along with the possibility of thunderstorms over the next two days.
The impact of the rains was felt beyond flight operations, with the Yamuna River crossing the danger mark of 205.33 metres and touching 207 metres at the Old Railway Bridge. Authorities set up relief camps and deployed National Disaster Response Force teams to evacuate families from low-lying areas in Yamuna Khadar, Mayur Vihar Phase-I, Old Usmanpur and Yamuna Bazar.
Officials said thousands of people, along with their cattle, were moved to temporary shelters, while parts of Noida near Sector 167 also reported flooding after the river overflowed into residential areas.
