Flooded areas are pictured on the outskirts of Chennai, India, December 2, 2015. The heaviest rainfall in over a century has caused massive flooding across the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu, driving thousands from their homes, shutting auto factories and paralysing the airport in the state capital Chennai.
Chennai airport, where operations were suspended till Sunday in the wake of floods, will partially resume flight operations from Saturday morning with the runway found to be safe for landings and departures.
“Flight operations from Chennai airport will resume partially from tomorrow. The flights will operate during the day time,” Airports Authority of India (AAI) Chairman R K Srivastava said. Details
