Flights cancelled: Bad weather leads to cancellation of 4 flights, delay of 34 others

Ahmedabad: Bad weather in Ahmedabad and several other parts of the country has caused considerable disruption at the Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International (SVPI) Airport, leading to cancellation of several flights and major delays.
