Aviation regulator DGCA will soon start special audit of all scheduled domestic airlines to check their compliance with various safety and airworthiness requirements.
The exercise, which is part of a “continual process”, also comes against the backdrop of incidents of alleged violation of safety norms involving certain carriers.
Special audit of all scheduled domestic carriers would be done and the regulator carries out such exercises at certain intervals, a senior DGCA official said.
“It (special audit) is a continual process which is being undertaken,” the official added.
IndiGo, SpiceJet, Jet Airways, Air India, GoAir, Vistara and AirAsia India are among the scheduled domestic airlines.
