Zee Media Bureau

New Delhi: As people continue to face cash crunch after the scrapping of high value notes, the government has again extended the suspension of vehicle parking charges at all airports till the midnight of November 28.

On November 14, vehicle parking charges at all airports were suspended till the midnight of November 21.

The decision to defer collecting parking charges would be applicable for Airports Authority of India (AAI) as well as privately operated aerodromes.

The extension comes against the backdrop of people continuing to face difficulties in tendering change following the demonetisation of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes, which was announced on November 8.

While announcing the parking fee waiver on November 14, the government had said the move was to facilitate the smooth movement of passengers.

There are 75 operational airports including six run under joint ventures.
