This has reference to Quetta airport operation. Quetta by air is linked to the rest of the country only in day time. In the night no flight can land at the airport due to gorge like terrain of the city. However, some places, like Kathmandu, are more dangerous than Quetta because of deep gorges and aircraft face difficulty landing in day time.
Sometimes in emergency many people have to go in and out of Quetta at night but they have only one option that is by road. I will request the federal government and CAA to arrange night landing facility at Quetta airport so that night flights can be made available to local people.
