Flights from Jaffna to India to resume from next week, says Lankan Aviation Minister

Cash-strapped Sri Lanka will resume flights from the northern Jaffna peninsula to Chennai by next week, a senior minister has said, three years after the island nation discontinued the services. The move will help the country's tourism sector and provide a fillip to its beleaguered economy. The tourism sector is the main source of foreign exchange earnings for Sri Lanka.
