The runway could be cleared only after Indigo towed its aircraft from the runway. Due to this, the departures from the runway remain halted, according to the source. The CAT III-enabled runway 28/10 has recently been opened for operations after being closed for recarpeting and refurbishment. The Delhi airport has four operational runways: RW 09/27, RW 11R/29L, RW 11L/29R, and RW 10/28.
