DGCA rejects plea to declare airspace above Puri temple as ‘no fly zone’

Bhubaneswar: The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has rejected the plea for declaration of the air space above Odisha’s 12th century Hindu shrine Shree Jagannath temple premises in Puri as a ‘no fly zone’ on the grounds that it will violate laws and rules governing civil aviation in the country.
In a letter to the Shree Jagannath Temple Administration (SJTA), the DGCA said it has no plans to declare the air space above the Shree Jagannath temple premises in Puri as a no fly zone. It said it has no plans to declare any fresh no flying zones in-principle as it would violate laws and rules governing civil aviation and affect the safety and efficiency of civil aviation operations.
