Indian ambassador to the UAE Deepak Mittal and Consul General of India in Dubai Satish Sivan Thursday held a meeting with representatives of Indian and UAE airlines “to review the efforts to address the concerns of the Indians stranded in the UAE.”“Stranded Indian nationals can rebook or book on these flights directly with the airlines or through the local agents…. efforts being made by airlines to resume limited, non scheduled flight operations. Travel of nearly 7,000 stranded Indians, especially (those in) transit and those on short term visits, have been facilitated and returned to India over the past three days. Airlines are focussed on gradually increasing these non-scheduled flights from different airports in the UAE depending on airspace safety and operational clearances by the authorities,” the Indian embassy in Abu Dhabi said on X Thursday.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideosIndia Condoles Khameini’s Death, Jaishankar Speaks To Iranian FM; ‘Iran War God’s Plan’: US MilitaryNitish Kumar Files RS Nomination, Vows Support to New State GovernmentCV Ananda Bose Resigns As Bengal Governor, TN Guv RN Ravi To Replace Him; Mamata Attacks Amit Shah’Undeniable’: US Deputy Secretary Landau Hails India’s Rise As Key To The 21st CenturyJaishankar Dials Iran FM Araghchi After India Condoles Khamenei’s Death In US-Israeli StrikesIran Conflict Presents ‘Huge Opportunity’ For India To Become Clean Energy Exporter: Amitabh KantIndian YouTuber Nancy Grewal Killed In Canada Stabbing, Questions Rise Over Motive Behind Attack’Conflict In Backyard’: Rahul Gandhi Targets PM Modi On Iran Warship, Govt Denies Responsibility’India Deserves UN Security Council Seat’, Says Finland President Alexander Stubb In Strong Support‘Maha Strategy Repeated’: Opposition Hits Out at BJP After Nitish RS Move123PhotostoriesMark Zuckerberg buys $170 million mansion in Miami: A look into a tech billionaire’s ultra-luxury abodeIce Apple: One of India’s summer favourite fruits and 5 must-try refreshing ‘tadgola’ recipes for scorching heatFoods richer in potassium than bananas: Doctor reveals 6 heart-healthy options that can help support blood pressure naturallyBigg Boss Malayalam contestants who split with their partners after the show7 ways to extend your car’s engine life12 traditional Bengali vegetarian dishes that are as good as a non-veg feast8 plants you should never grow from seed (and the smarter way to plant them)No fancy regimen needed: 5 simple wellness routines that actually workGautam Gambhir’s serene Rs.20 crore Delhi home which has beautifully utilised natural light for a grand impactCelebs stranded in UAE: Ajith Kumar, Lara Dutta and Sonal Chauhan share safety updates amid Middle East tensions123Hot PicksChina Military BudgetIran Mobile Missile LauncersMiddle East CrisisNitish KumarIncome Tax CalculatorPublic holidays March 2026Bank Holidays MarchTop TrendingAP SSC Hall TicketsNFL RumorsFortnite v39 51 Update Release timeT20 World CupBengaluru Cab Driver TheftNancy GrewalMiddle East CrisisTelangana High CourtUS SubmarineTrump assassination plot
