India Jun 27, 2025

After the recent Air India crash in Ahmedabad, a top parliamentary committee has summoned the Civil Aviation Ministry and Boeing to answer some tough questions.
Chaired by Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Jha, the group also wants input from the DGCA and Air India as they dig into what went wrong and how to make flying safer.

Committee to look into technical issues, safety procedures

The main focus is on the Boeing Dreamliner 787-8 that crashed—specifically, its history with maintenance and how it was managed when owned by the government.
The committee plans to look at everything from technical issues to safety procedures and even human factors behind the scenes.
The goal: stronger safety standards so passengers can feel confident about flying in India.
