The civil aviation regulator, Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), has promoted 18 senior officers to the post of Deputy Director General (DDG) — a move aimed at strengthening its top technical and air safety leadership amid persistent staff shortages across critical divisions.
“With these promotions, all the vacant posts of DDG are now full in the DGCA,” an official confirmed to HT. “Some of these posts have been lying vacant since 2023,” he said.
