A surge of false bomb threats disrupted 170 flights, costing airlines INR 600 crore. The government plans stricter laws, including a no-fly list and tougher security penalties.

Airlines lose ₹600 crore following bomb threats, Govt. takes serious steps

<h2>A surge of false bomb threats disrupted 170 flights, costing airlines INR 600 crore. The government plans stricter laws, including a no-fly list and tougher security penalties.</h2>

In under 24 hours, nearly 80 domestic and international flights were hit with bomb threats that later proved to be false alarms, leaving thousands of passengers and security agencies on edge. According to two former airline officials, the disruptions resulted in an estimated loss of around INR 600 crore for the airlines.
Over a span of nine days, more than 170 flights operated by Indian carriers were subjected to similar threats, mostly spread via social media. Some of these threats even forced international flights to divert from their routes, causing confusion and delays for travellers.
In response, the government is planning new legislation aimed at tackling such threats, including placing offenders on a no-fly list to ban them from air travel. Additionally, changes to aircraft security regulations are in the works to ensure stricter penalties for those responsible for issuing bomb threats.

By October, daily domestic passengers will surpass the earlier high of 456,000 as per union aviation minister, Jyotiraditya Scindia.&nbsp; He also highlighted the industry's enormous potential given that India only has about a 3%&ndash;4% penetration rate at the moment

Civil aviation minister Jyotiraditya Scindia said that the average daily domestic aviation passengers is expected to surpass the previous peak of 456,000 by October 2023.
During the CAPA India aviation summit, he also remarked, that a recovery in the Indian aviation industry following the COVID-19 outbreak was 'V-shaped'. According to the minister, India currently has between 420,000 and 440,000 domestic aviation passengers each day.
Scindia emphasised the industry's enormous potential, given that penetration in India is still just about 3&ndash;4%.
The union aviation minister also spoke about the need to build the infrastructure necessary to sustain an economy worth $20 billion by 2047. The expansion of civil aircraft in India will be aided by the country's expanding economy, rapid urbanisation, rising standard of living, and rising aspirations of its people, he said.&nbsp;

India jumps to 48th place in ICAO aviation safety ranking; Here's what it means

Singapore is at the top, followed by the UAE and South Korea at the second and third positions, respectively

India has jumped to the 48th position in the global aviation safety ranking by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), according to DGCA officials.
Four years ago, the country was ranked at the 102nd position.
In the ranking, Singapore is at the top, followed by the UAE and South Korea at the second and third positions, respectively, the officials said.
China is at the 49th place, they added.
Under its Universal Safety Oversight Audit Programme (USOAP) Continuous Monitoring Approach, an ICAO Coordinated Validation Mission (ICVM) was undertaken from November 9 to 16.
On Saturday, DGCA chief Arun Kumar told PTI that the regulator has worked tirelessly to upgrade India's safety ranking and the results are there. "Hopefully, we continue to remain vigilant and improve further".
The country's score in terms of effective implementation of key safety elements has improved to 85.49 per cent, the officials said.
On November 16, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) said the audit was conducted in the areas of legislation, organisation, personal licensing, operations, airworthiness and aerodromes.
"As per the initial reports, the mission was highly successful. India has done extremely well and our scores will see a substantial improvement putting us in the company of nations with best safety standards and oversight systems," it had said in a release.

Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia on Friday said he is examining the matter of airlines charging passengers a fee for issuing boarding passes at check-in counters inside the terminals.
A passenger named Neeti Shikha said on Twitter: "New rule of SpiceJet. If you wish to get a boarding card at the check in counter, you need to pay extra. This is like telling a customer in a restaurant that if you want eat in a plate, you will be charged. Wonder what's consumer forum doing!"
Journalist Madhavan Narayanan called this practice of airlines as "ridiculous". 
In response, Scindia said: "Agreed, will examine this asap!"
Currently, many airlines in India charge passengers a certain fee for issuing boarding passes at check-in counters.
This practice was vigorously implemented by the airlines with the onset of the pandemic when the government had made it mandatory for passengers to do web check-in.
