Amritsar - Drones flown in a sports tournament caused flights to be diverted, approaching the runway while hovering; the airport remained on high alert overnight.

The Amritsar International Airport was on high alert due to a drone flying over the airport on Sunday night. According to the police, the drones were not suspicious but were flown during a sports tournament. Although there is a ban on flying drones within an 8 km radius of the airport, questions are being raised about the drone coming close to the runway despite this. After seeing the drone last night, seven flights scheduled to arrive in Amritsar were prevented from landing, and their routes were changed. Police
