Parliament panel to quiz IndiGo, DGCA, min officials Wed
NEW DELHI: Top representatives of airlines, aviation ministry and regulator DGCA will appear on Dec 17 before a parliamentary committee, which is set to question them on the days long ordeal faced by thousands of fliers due to mass-cancellation of flights by IndiGo due to its unpreparedness after a new rule for more rest for pilots kicked in.
The meeting of standing committee on transport, tourism & culture headed by JDU MP Sanjay Jha is expected to pose tough questions to not only IndiGo, India’s largest airline that commands 63% market share, over the fiasco but also DGCA over its inability to anticipate the crisis that derailed travel plans of people, including Parliamentarians.
