So entire @IndiGo6E game is now out in open. What's going on is a CLEAR CASE OF CONSPIRACY & SABOTAGE.

Join dots.

-New DGCA pilot rest rules for passengers safety were announced 18 months ago. Every airline had enough time to hire more pilots.

-Air India, Vistara, Akasa, Spicejet planned & hired additional pilots accordingly. IndiGo DELIBERATELY didn't but kept adding new routes simultaneously.

-Result? 1,000+ cancellations in a few hours. Thousands stranded for hours with no clarity, no support, no compensation, no accommodation.

-But IndiGo still kept selling tickets, charging for seats, meals, add-ons WHILE KNOWING that mass cancellations were unavoidable. It was nothing else to keep earning interest on parked money meantime.

-Their international code-share flights ran smoothly, reportedly, with TURKISH Airlines. It DELIBERATELY fcuked up domestic operations to create furore against Modi Sarkar.

-This created so much chaos that Modi Sarkar had to roll back the policy just to prevent Bharat's Civil Aviation sector from collapsing. Govt did it only to stop inconvenience to passengers but hurt it's image badly.

-And...IT WAS DELIBERATELY PLANNED TO COINCIDE with Russian President’s visit, when entire Govt machinery would be the busiest.

WHAT NEXT?

Expect MASSIVE CRACKDOWN against IndiGo by Modi Sarkar. Passenger Safety Policy will be back but now, through a Bill in Parliament. It won't be now only a notification or guideline, but LAW. I won't be surprised if inquiry is initiated in dubious character of IndiGo CEO Pieter Elbers who is a Dutch National.

MODI SARKAR HAS BENT AS OF NOW TO TACKLE SITUATION, BUT IT WILL HIT HARD WHERE IT HURTS THE MOST & may even open Bharat's Aviation Sector to International Airlines to finish near-duopoly of IndiGo & Air India.

But it's a lesson for Modi Sarkar also not to be overdependent on Govt Officials who like a fool sat idle for 18 months without doing followup on action taken by IndiGo to meet requirements of new notification for passengers safety. Crackdown is necessary on them too & responsibility must be fixed.

The Buck must start with IndiGo & Stop at Erring Govt Officials.

Let it be a learning experience but the last one.
