Pre-flight preparations at the airport are in the final stages. Flight of commercial aircraft can be started at any time after DGCA's approval on the preparations.

This is how ILS works
According to experts, the landing aircraft pilot gets correct information from the altitude of 2360 feet with the help of ILS. This system is quite useful when the clouds are down in the rain, and there is less visibility due to fog in the cold. If this system does not exist, then the aircraft will have to come down to about 2000 feet.
