We withdrew the no term once the aircrafts gave confirmation of cards serviceability. DVOR facility has been made available since 12.30 a.m. No term was issued and the catering facility, apart from the airlines has now been informed of its withdrawal. Everything is functioning normally now," Srivastava told ANI.

All flight operations were suspended at the Lucknow Airport yesterday following the failure of the radar frequency system, which affected the landing and takeoff of all aircrafts.
Almost 16 flights were affected due to the Radar DVOR failure which was reported at 4:30 p.m. yesterday.
