The government on Friday extended the ban on international flights till August 31.

The ban will, however, not apply to cargo international flights.

International flights are operating only to and from 28 countries with which India has entered into an “air bubble” agreement.

International scheduled operations have been suspended in the country since March 23, 2020.
