Air India to resume Himachal operations

Shimla: Air India has decided to restart its operations in Himachal Pradesh from December 3, officials said on Monday.

The flight was launched on March 19 this year when the new terminal building was inaugurated at Bhuntar by Civil Aviation Minister Praful Patel.
