On IndiGo flight cancellations, MoS Civil Aviation Murlidhar Mohol says, "Pilots' Association had demanded that the duty hours should be reduced from 10 hours to 8 hours and for this, reforms be made to FDTL (Flight Duty Time Limitations). The Delhi High Court also gave its approval. After that, we alerted all airline companies in the country that we have to implement FDTL as per the High Court guidelines in two phases - from 1st July 2025 and from 1st November 2025. All airlines companies worked on this but IndiGo did not take it as seriously as it should have. The reason behind the situation that formed 4 days back, the chaos was the IndiGo and its management did not take this seriously. Through DGCA, we took immediate action. We appointed a 4-member investigation committee, a 24/7 control room was set up, we kept FDTL regulations in abeyance until February 2026. DGCA has issued a show-cause notice to IndiGo CEO, and a response has been sought within 24 hours. Regarding the rise in airfare of other airline companies, we have informed these companies regarding a chart to decide the same. We have also told IndiGo to refund the money of passengers without any cancellation and their luggage be returned within 24 hours. Govt is taking this matter very seriously. Action will certainly be taken after the investigation committee's report comes. There is a slight improvement in the situation. We are working on it together to ensure normal operation of flight movements in the country..."
