Iran refused Indian Air Force aircraft to fly over its territory

NEW DELHI, Dec. 11 (APP): India disclosed on Thursday that Iran did not allow fighter jets of Indian Air force to fly over its territory on way to the United States for taking part in the Red Flag air-combat exercise in September.

Indian External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukherjee while responding to a question in Lok Sabha said after turning down the request of India by Tehran, an alternative route was taken.

To a question on the India-Pakistan-Iran gas pipeline, Mukherjee said Indian Petroleum Minister had written a letter to his Iranian counter-part in November, asking for a meeting of the three countries on the mega project.
