Nearly 500 Indian nationals travelled from Qatar to India and other global destinations on flights operated by Qatar Airways, the Indian Embassy in Doha said in an advisory.
In a post on X, the embassy on Friday said the passengers travelled on Qatar Airways flights to Kochi and other destinations.
The airline also facilitated the transportation of the mortal remains of two Indian nationals who died of natural causes, along with their accompanying family members, to Kochi on humanitarian grounds.
The embassy said Qatar's airspace is only partially open, resulting in limited flight operations by Qatar Airways.
"One flight to Mumbai is planned for operations by Qatar Airways on March 14," the advisory said, referring to Mumbai.
It added that Indian nationals wishing to travel from India to Qatar can take Qatar Airways flights that are returning from India to Doha.
Meanwhile, the Indian Ambassador to Qatar, Vipul, held another virtual meeting with Indian community organisations to brief them on the efforts undertaken by the embassy to ensure the welfare of the Indian community during the ongoing conflict situation.
Around 100 community members attended the briefing, while daily meetings are also being held with apex Indian community organisations.
According to the embassy, members of the Indian community expressed gratitude to the leadership and people of Qatar for ensuring the well-being of residents and reiterated that Qatar remains their "second home". -- ANI
