Supreme Court Orders Centre to Submit New Aviation Rules Within Two Weeks
The Supreme Court has directed the Centre to submit, within two weeks and in a sealed cover, the new aviation rules framed under the Bharatiya Vayuyan Adhiniyam, 2024, aimed at modernising India's civil aviation sector. This follows a petition seeking stronger regulation to address unpredictable airfare fluctuations, ancillary charges, and passenger protection. The Centre informed the court that the draft rules are ready and undergoing translation before being placed before Parliament. The court scheduled further hearing for August 3.
