Exemptions to night duty rules ensure viable operations while maintaining safety: DGCA

New Delhi: The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) said it granted certain exemptions to airlines on night-duty rules so that they could maintain both stability and safety of operations.

“The variations are transitional in nature, aimed at ensuring a smooth and safe operational transition without compromising the regulatory intent,” the DGCA said in a statement. “These variations are to be reviewed with the operators after a period of six month from date of implementation.”
