How to get to India by Air
The
major international airports in India, which serve traffic from all
over the world, are in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Bangalore and
Hyderabad. Airports tend to be on the outskirts of cities. Pre-paid taxi
services and auto-rickshaws are stationed outside the terminus to get
you into the city.
How to get to India by Rail
Railways
do not cut across international borders in this part of the world
except the Samjhauta (i.e. "understanding"!) Express that runs between
Amritsar (India) and Lahore (Pakistan). But since the running of the
train is subject to relations between the two countries it would be
prudent to check if the train is running. However, in many cases it is
possible to travel till the border by train.
How to get to India by Road
Except
the Lahore-Delhi bus which used to run 4 times a week, but is now
erratic, there are no cross border coach services. It is possible to
drive into India with the requisite paperwork in order. Even driving in
from Nepal now requires a permit. Permits may be arranged through the
Indian embassy in your country.
