"The air traffic was halted between 12.15 PM to 1.45 PM due to some damage to a small portion of the runway," airport director Manoj Chourasia told PTI.
Two flights of the Indigo airlines -- one from Mumbai and another from Delhi -- were not permitted to land and diverted to Baroda.
Jet Airways flight from Pune to Indore was asked to land in Bhopal whereas the airline's Indore to Delhi flight was postponed for a while, Chourasia added.
