DGCA suspends 4 inspectors after IndiGo meltdown oversight failure

  • DGCA suspended four Flight Operations Inspectors (FOIs) overseeing IndiGo's safety and operational compliance.
  • The suspension follows preliminary findings suggesting lapses in oversight related to IndiGo's recent operational crisis.
  • IndiGo cancelled thousands of flights due to failure to plan for tighter safety regulations, stranding many passengers.
  • DGCA deployed two teams to IndiGo's Gurugram office to monitor operations, including crew utilization, refunds, and compensation.

Why It Matters: Regulatory action against inspectors signals stricter oversight for airline safety.
