Have Another Agency to Probe DGCA Misdoings
In USA if an Aircraft crashes the the National Transportation Safety Board steps in to investigate. Now all stake holders in safe flying, including the FAA are answerable.
In India DGCA commits the misatkes of Ommision and commision, safe in the knowledge that anything goes wrong their colleagues or they themselves will investigate. Invariably the shortcomings in DGCA or cases of corruption in the organisation never get exposed.
Expose the regulator, or shall we say regulate the regulator for clean, efficient and safe flying.
The Government should notfy a super regulatory body for the DGCA, this body should have no regular interaction with the DGCA, no vested interests should be allowed to develop.
For starters please investigate how a drug addict like Rahul Mahajan got and later retained his Pilot's license. Who issued him periodic Medical fitness Certificates, why no one reported his addiction (or were reports received only to be brushed under the carpet.
