India has achieved the first successful GAGAN-based precision approach by a commercial jet aircraft, bringing India’s indigenous satellite navigation system into mainstream commercial jet operations.
• The milestone was achieved by an IndiGo Airbus A321 at Udaipur Airport.
• India is among the few countries in the world with an indigenous satellite-based augmentation system certified for civil aviation.
• This indigenous technology enables more precise landings without requiring additional ground infrastructure, helping expand precision approach capability across India’s airports.
• For passengers, it means more precise and reliable flight operations, especially during challenging weather conditions.
• With most newly manufactured aircraft now expected to be GAGAN-capable under the DGCA mandate, this milestone paves the way for wider adoption of indigenous satellite navigation across India’s commercial aviation fleet.
This achievement marks another significant step towards PM @narendramodi Ji’s vision of building an Aatmanirbhar Bharat powered by world class aviation technology.

A proud milestone for Indian aviation! 🇮🇳✈️Congratulations to @AAI_Official, @isro & @DGCA on the successful Airbus A320 satellite-based approach at Udaipur using India’s indigenous GAGAN system. A big step towards safer, smarter and self-reliant aviation.

The Year 2024 marked a milestone of achievements for the Airports Authority of India, including the successful implementation of #GAGAN (GPS Aided Geo Augmented Navigation) based Localizer Performance with Vertical Guidance (LPV) procedures at Nine of its Airports.
This advanced technology is similar to the Instrument Landing System #ILS but eliminates the need for Ground-based Landing Aids. The #GAGAN-based #LPV relies on satellite-based navigation, enabling seamless operations even in regions without navigation infrastructure, further enhancing #India's Aviation Capabilities.

Still waiting, despite several complaints. Sad how companies are taking their customers for granted and don't fulfill what they are out to fulfill. Horrible business ethic- all i want is your commitments to be fulfilled
GeM, a government e-marketplace, has very poor support in resolving the issues.
Standard response for any issue(share screenshots,videos,backend team wking). Average time taken is one month for ticket resolution.Need to strengthen the help/ support team. @GeM_India
@ANI Lengpui Airport is owned and operated by the Mizoram State Government , GAD department. They don't have expertise in maintaining and operation of Airport. There is a lot of scope for development the airport.This is the only airport in Mizoram.
A big success for India! The International Civil Aviation Organization today elected Representative of India, Dr Shefali Juneja as the first Vice President of @icao. India gets this after 68years. @MoCA_GoI @JM_Scindia @HCI_Ottawa
A groundbreaking achievement as the flight demonstration of point-in-space departure from Juhu Airport and Low-Level Route (LLR RNP0.3) to Pune using GAGAN has been successfully validated. This showcases the remarkable progress of #GAGAN, a joint venture by @isro & @AAI_Official.
पति, माता पिता और भाई के दिवंगत होने के बाद भी हनुमानगढ़ राजस्थान की बेटी मीरा अपनी दो बेटियों के विवाह के भात का निमंत्रण देने मायके आई, दिवंगत भाई की कुटिया को तिलक किया और चली गई ।
नरसी के भात की तरह 10 लाख का भात देने आ गए गांव वाले, किसी ने सही है गांव में राम बसता है
