Civil aviation minister K. Rammohan Naidu on Monday told the Rajya Sabha that the probe into last year’s fatal Air India plane crash is progressing well and the investigation report will be released soon. And I would say that very soon, within the completion of the year, the report should be out,” Naidu said. He said the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) held meetings with airlines after the conflict escalated in the region. “We are seeing the situation might get better in the days ahead, so that more people can also travel through civil aviation,” he said. Addressing concerns about aviation safety, Naidu said the DGCA follows standards set by the International Civil Aviation Organisation.
