Air India CEO summoned post Ahmedabad crash

After a recent Air India Express flight crash in Ahmedabad, Air India's CEO Campbell Wilson and top airline officials have been summoned by a parliamentary panel for a meeting on July 9.
Safety audits by aviation authorities found serious issues like poor crew coordination, maintenance problems, and missing paperwork—not just at Air India but across several airlines.

Panel seeks answers on larger safety issues in aviation

This isn't just about one accident—the panel wants answers on bigger safety problems in Indian aviation.
They'll hear from the DGCA and other airline leaders about training gaps and slow emergency responses that put passengers at risk.
The goal is to push airlines to fix these issues fast and help restore trust in flying for everyone.
