Dharamshala/Shimla, May 9 -- The Punjab Kings vs Delhi Capitals Indian Premier League (IPL) match was called off midway and the stadium evacuated, officials and spectators at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association (HPCA) stadium in Dharamshala said. "First, the floodlights were switched off and evacuation of spectators started. Later, the entire stadium went dark," said a spectator, requesting not to be named. Senior police officials said the decision was taken by the district administration in wake of the reports of Pakistani attacks in Jammu and Kashmir and Punjab. The development came close on the heels of reports of explosions at the Jammu airstrip and loud sounds in Punjab. Subsequently, blackouts were enforced in Jammu and ordered in multiple Punjab cities. As tensions continue to escalate between India and Pakistan, the Himachal government on Thursday cancelled long leaves of all doctors and allied medical staff in the state. The government instructed all hospitals to be on alert and ensure adequate availability of beds. Trauma centres, laboratories and emergency services will remain operational 24 hours, officials said. Chief minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu's media adviser Naresh Chauhan said, "Hospitals have been instructed to make adequate arrangements for medicines, oxygen and essential materials. Staff will be given special training." He added, "The operating procedures being issued by the Centre are being followed. We have already suspended flights from the three airports in state at Gaggal (Kangra), Bhuntar (Kullu) and Jubberhatti (Shimla) for civilian flights until May 9, with access restricted to military use."...
