Uncomfortable Truths and Open Secrets in Indian Civil Aviation
•How many pilots in India have lost their lives—or been rendered temporarily or permanently unfit—due to punishing rosters and chronic fatigue?
•How many are quietly battling depression, anxiety, or burnout, crushed under relentless schedules and toxic work environments?
•How many feel forced to hide their illnesses, falsify medical reports, or even resort to using proxies for mandatory health checks—just to hold on to their jobs?
•How many suffer in silence, afraid to speak up or seek help, fearing backlash,harassment, intimidation or loss of career?
•How many journalists, airline CEOs, and DGCA officials are fully aware of these truths—yet choose to look away (to preserve their cozy arrangements) in the name of growth, profits, and polished optics?
•And how many passengers truly care? Or do most simply chase the lowest fare, oblivious to the human cost behind the cheap ticket?

@Sanginamby This is truly disgusting. Your education and position are of no use if you cannot treat people with kindness. My heart goes out for the poor little girl.
@shukla_tarun@IndiGo6E@DGCAIndia I don’t know what thrill they get by doing such things if god forbid any emergency happens they will look for their bags instead of opening them first
