India has closed its Visa Application Centre in Dhaka following rising security concerns and threats from extremist elements, prompting New Delhi to summon Bangladesh’s High Commissioner and urge protection of diplomatic missions.

Meanwhile, Pakistan has extended its airspace ban on Indian airlines until January 24, disrupting around 800 weekly flights and increasing costs.

In Delhi-NCR, the Supreme Court approved action against end-of-life vehicles below BS-IV emission standards to combat worsening air pollution, while exempting newer vehicles and calling for public awareness initiatives and toll reviews.
