Operationalised under the UDAN scheme, Darbhanga Airport is enabling Bihar’s renowned Shahi Litchis to reach big cities like Delhi, Ahmedabad, Mumbai & Hyderabad, opening newer markets and greater opportunities.
Considering the immense agricultural potential of Darbhanga and wider Mithila region especially for premium litchis and mangoes, we will soon operationalize a dedicated air cargo terminal in Darbhanga.
Empowered by Hon'ble PM @narendramodi ji Krishi Udan vision, farmers are benefitting with seamless and time-bound air connectivity for agricultural produce.

Under the transformational leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji, India has established itself as the world’s third-largest domestic aviation market.
Supported by the UDAN scheme, air travel in India has evolved from being an elite privilege to an inclusive travel. Indian airports are now handling more than 5 lakh passengers every day.
It has been my constant endeavor to further enhance the ease of flying in the country through passenger-centric initiatives at airports like the UDAN Yatri Cafe offering affordable food, Flybrary providing free access to books and free Wi-Fi at the terminals.
To further strengthen passenger facilitation measures, we have issued important directions: 60% seats free of charge, assured seating together for families, and clear, transparent norms for carriage of sports equipment, musical instruments & pets. Stronger enforcement and visibility of passenger rights, including during delays and cancellations.

Honoured to flag off a defining lift-off for India’s civil aviation ecosystem. The inaugural test flight of HAL’s Advanced Light Civil Helicopter 'Dhruv NG' marks a major Atmanirbharta milestone.
A Made-in-India rotary-wing for civil and commercial operations is a proud testament to our indigenous engineering capability. It reflects India’s strength to design, develop and manufacture world-class helicopters.
Under the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri @narendramodi Ji, India has moved decisively from ‘Import Dependency’ to ‘Indigenous Reliability’.
Dhruv with the indigenous Shakti engine reinforces our rise as a reliable global aviation manufacturing hub.

Even as Indigo operations across the country have stabilised, we continue to closely oversee the operations through the Ministry’s Control Room.
A regular vigil is being maintained for real-time resolution of passenger grievances and the Control Room team is making all efforts to further enhance response time for prompt and effective redressal of passenger concerns.
Passengers facing any issue may seek assistance by tagging @MoCA_GoI on X, contacting the Ministry’s Control Room at 011-24604283 / 011-24632987 or by registering their grievance on the AirSewa App/Web Portal.
During the last week, many passengers faced severe inconvenience due to Indigo’s internal mismanagement of crew rosters, flight schedules and inadequate communication. While the enquiry and necessary actions are underway, another meeting with Indigo’s top management was held to review the stabilization measures.
Today again, @IndiGo6E CEO Pieter Elbers was summoned to the Ministry to provide an update. He confirmed that 100% of the refunds for flights affected till 6th December have been completed. A strict instruction to expedite the completion of the remaining refunds and baggage handover was given.
The Ministry considers it necessary to curtail the overall Indigo routes, which will help in stabilizing the airline’s operations and lead to reduced cancellations. A curtailment of 10% has been ordered. While abiding with it, Indigo will continue to cover all its destinations as before.
Indigo has been instructed to comply with all the directives of the Ministry, including fare capping and passenger convenience measures without any exception.

The Ministry of Civil Aviation & DGCA has been constantly monitoring the situation across all the airports in real-time since 3rd December due to extra ordinary circumstances caused by the disruption of Indigo operations.
Tonight a high-level review meeting comprising all the senior officials was undertaken for a comprehensive assessment of the situation.
All senior officials of the Ministry have been instructed to visit airports to verify airline operations and passenger-oriented services. Any shortcomings identified, including feedback received through interactions with passengers are to be addressed and rectified immediately.
@MoCA_GoI@AAI_Official@DGCAIndia
To reduce passenger inconvenience at airports, multiple stakeholder engagements were held and real-time airport situations have been monitored continuously over the last four days.
Regular meetings were convened with all operators, airport directors, ground-handling agencies and all other stakeholders.
Operators were instructed to provide all essential facilities for stranded passengers, with special care for senior citizens and Divyang passengers.
IndiGo has been directed to ensure timely passenger communication on cancellations and complete all refunds for cancelled or heavily delayed flights by 8:00 PM today.
The aviation network is now moving swiftly toward full normalcy and corrective measures will continue until operations fully stabilize.

Taking note of unreasonable surge in fares due to disruptions in flight operations of Indigo, Ministry of Civil Aviation has directed all airlines to maintain strict adherence to prescribed fare caps.
The airlines shall extend maximum possible support to affected passengers, including alternate flight options where feasible.

@dtptraffic bad congestion at Punjabi bagh, not a single personnel on duty. On other days when this spot is clear, around 5-7 personnel are deputed to inspect vehicles and issue challans!
First time ever I asked someone for a picture, and it had to be with Ravish Kumar Ji. His honesty and integrity inspire me deeply, reminding us of the true purpose of journalism.

I reaffirm my commitment to ‘Ease of Flying’ while honoring Gandhi Ji’s legacy of cleanliness.

#WATCH | Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu says, "From the Ministry of Civil Aviation, we are launching the new guidelines for seaplane operations in the country under the regional connectivity scheme UDAN. Prime Minister Narendra Modi ji's vision has been to improve the civil aviation network in the country and to take air travel to the most common man of this country also. In the process, in the last ten years, we have improved the airport infrastructure, created more airports, brought in more airlines, and more air connectivity routes. And we are taking a step forward now to introduce seaplanes also into the civil aviation network... We want to improve the operations, we want to improve the connectivity, which is why we are utilising the 7500-kilometre coastline of this country, which is one of the biggest in the world.... We are preparing one network where we take the plane around and we show the people of this country. We have invited the state governments also to participate in this and we are seeing good interest from people."
