Kargil, March 16, 2025 – Ladakh Member of Parliament, Haji Hanifa Jan, expressed his gratitude to Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and other officials for their swift action in arranging special flights to assist airlifting of stranded passengers of Ladakh from Jammu and Srinagar.

In a post on X, Jan acknowledged the efforts of Air Vice Marshal Vikram Gaur, Group Captain Amit Sarmai, and other authorities for organizing two AN-32 flights from Srinagar and one from Jammu to Kargil on March 17, 2025, along with IL-76 flights from Srinagar and Jammu to Leh on March 18, 2025.

The initiative is expected to provide much-needed relief to passengers, particularly students and those traveling during the holy month of Ramazan. Jan also expressed hope for additional flights in the coming days until the Zojila road reopens, ensuring continued support for those affected by the travel disruptions.
