An Indigo flight, which was traveling from  Amritsar to Ahmedabad, reportedly entered Pakistan airspace due to bad weather on Saturday, media reports said.

The flight then returned to Indian airspace safely.

IndiGo flight 6E-645 had to take a deviation over Atari into Pakistan airspace due to bad weather on Saturday, the airline said in a statement as quoted by NDTV.

"The deviation was well coordinated with Pakistan by Amritsar ATC via telephone. The crew was in continuous contact with Pakistan on R/T and the flight landed in Ahmedabad safely post the deviation,” read the statement.

According to flight radar, the Indian plane with a ground speed of 454 knots entered north of Lahore at about 7:30pm and returned to India at 8:01pm, reported Dawn News earlier.

A senior official of the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) told the newspaper that it was not unusual as it was “internationally allowed” in bad weather conditions.
