Parliament panel seeks 'full autonomy' for DGCA, citing 'safety gaps'
NEW DELHI: Noting that the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is not in a position to fully discharge its mandate, the parliamentary standing committee on transport, tourism and culture has recommended full administrative and financial autonomy for the civil aviation regulator. In its report, Overall Review of Safety in the Civil Aviation Sector , tabled in the Upper House on Wednesday, the panel flagged issues including air traffic controller (ATC) fatigue, safety deficiencies, operational overload and inadequate infrastructure, particularly staff shortages. Autonomy was described as essential to address critical technical staff gaps arising from an ineffective recruitment model a concern highlighted by past expert committees but left unaddressed, the committee, chaired by Janata Dal-United (JDU) MP Sanjay Kumar Jha, said. Data presented to the committee showed that out of 1,063 sanctioned posts, only 553 are filled. The alternative channel, recruiting personnel on deputation, has proven equally ineffective, particularly for sourcing talent from the Indian Air Force. Experienced Air Force officers are unwilling to join the DGCA on deputation because doing so entails a significant loss of service benefits and allowances, rendering the proposition financially unattractive. Consequently, posts reserved for this vital stream of expertise remain chronically unfilled, the report said. The committee identified 12 key areas requiring systemic improvement to ensure safety and the sustainable growth of Indias aviation sector. The report assumes significance in the wake of the Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad on June 12 that killed 260 people. However, the incident did not feature in the report. The panel recommended developing a national Fatigue Risk Management System (FRMS) for air traffic controllers (ATCOs) and a comprehensive staffing audit to end the long-standing practice of seeking exemptions from mandatory duty-time limits. Referring to four helicopter accidents during the recent Char Dham Yatra, it also called for standardised safety protocols a uniform national regulatory framework for helicopter operations. Emphasising stronger surveillance and enforcement, the committee urged a time-bound mechanism for closing all safety deficiencies, with priority given to serious Level I cases, and tougher enforcement measures including financial penalties for non-compliance. In its findings, the panel noted that unresolved Level II deficiencies had risen sharply this year, signalling serious lapses. For 2025, up to the month of April, surveillance activities had already detected 4,692 deficiencies. Of these, only 945 had been rectified, leaving a staggering 3,747 deficiencies pending. Further, this backlog included 37 unresolved Level I deficiencies, which represent serious safety lapses requiring immediate attention, the committee said.

Auto driver injured in General Hospital Junction accident dies after a week
THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: A week after a speeding car crashed onto the footpath near General Hospital, Thiruvananathpuram, autorickshaw driver Shafi, 42, one of the four seriously injured in the accident, passed away on Sunday. He had been on ventilator support since the incident and showed no signs of recovery, said his family. Shafi, a resident of Azhikode, was the sole breadwinner of the household. He is survived by his partners Shajeela and Shamna, and four children: Shahana, Shafana, Mohammed Sayan and Fathima. Shamna, who has a speech impairment, and the children were entirely dependent on his income. The family now faces an uncertain future. Shafis body will be handed over to the family after the postmortem examination on Monday. The condition of the other injured victims remains critical. Surendran, another autorickshaw driver involved in the crash, is still in the ICU after undergoing surgery for a brain haemorrhage. Sreepriya, a pedestrian from Muttathara, continues to be unresponsive, and her family says doctors have observed no improvement. Anjaneyan, from Sasthamcotta, remains in the preoperative ICU ward. The accident happened on August 10 when a car lost control and crashed onto the footpath near the General Hospital. The vehicle, driven by A K Vishnunath, 25, from Vattiyoorkavu, rammed into autorickshaws and pedestrians before smashing through an iron railing and coming to a stop nearly five metres away. He was reportedly practising driving with his uncle Vijayan, who was in the car during the crash. RTO officials confirmed there was no mechanical fault in the car, and that the driver had applied the accelerator instead of the brake. The licence of Vishnunath has since been suspended for one year. Five people were injured in total autorickshaw drivers Shafi, Surendran and Kumar, and pedestrians Sreepriya and Anjaneyan. Of these, Shafi, Sreepriya and Anjaneyan suffered severe head and leg injuries and were put on ventilator support, while Kumar, Vishnunath and his uncle Vijayan escaped with minor injuries.

No blanket ban on bikes and autos on six-lane NH 66 in Kerala
KOCHI: No blanket ban will be enforced on bikes and autorickshaws along the widened NH 66 corridors in the state, according to a senior official with the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). As per the general Indian Roads Congress (IRC) codes, the entry of such small vehicles is not allowed on major expressways and six-lane highways for instance, the Dwarka Expressway in the national capital. However, it will be a different scenario in Kerala, where there will be no blanket ban on entry of two-and three-wheelers when the ongoing widening of the NH 66 into six-lane is completed, the official, working in the capacity of project director, said. A main reason is the width of the NH-66 stretches. The IRC codes specify that the restriction can be implemented in six-lane highways with a minimum width of 60 m, as in the case in most other states. However, here its only 45 m, the official said. Further, while the central agency is developing service roads along the 644-km stretch being widened from Thalappady (Kasaragod) to Mukkola (Thiruvananthapuram), sufficient width is not available at many places. At certain locations, service roads are entirely absent. However, vehicles cant just enter the carriageway from any point. Also, there will be no U-turns or traffic signals along the entire NH 66 stretch. Instead we are providing sufficient underpasses. In some sections, we are constructing underpasses just 200-400 m apart, like in Koonammavu, the official said. Also, a blanket ban will adversely affect the people in the state, where two-wheelers form the majority of the vehicular population, the official cited. How could these high numbers be accommodated if we close the main carriageway, as the service roads will be grossly inadequate in that case, he said. Earlier, there were reports of the NHAI planning to restrict entry of two- and-three wheelers, and tractors on stretches like Ramanattukara-Valanchery and Kazhakuttom-Karode. There will be no restriction on most of the stretches. Any decision on banning such vehicle entry will be based on local topography and the availability of service roads, the NHAI official said. NHAI to establish more toll plazas across state The same will be decided after the widening activities, which are now expected to be completed by June next year, the NHAI official said. The time-saving by the quick travel through the six-lane highway will come at a price, as the NHAI is set to establish more toll plazas across the state. Certainly, more toll plazas will come across the state, at places like Alappuzha (Kripasanam and Eramalloor -- elevated highway), and Kollam, in addition to the existing facilities, the official pointed out. Highway work Original completion date: Dec 31, 2025 Estimated completion: June 30, 2026 Designed speed of widened NH: 100 kmph Total kms being widened: 644 km (From Thalappady (Kasaragod) to Mukkola (TPuram) Total stretches of work: 22
