Strict action will be taken against errant airlines, warns Aviation Minister Naidu in Parliament on IndiGo crisis

New Delhi, December 8 (UNI) After a week-long disruption and chaos at India's airports with flights cancelled and delayed caused by a change in rules and shortage of pilots, Civil Aviation Minister Rammohan Naidu warned that strict action will be taken against airlines to "set an example" for others.
Speaking in the Rajya Sabha today, the minister said the chaos that resulted in thousands of flight cancellations and tens of thousands of stranded passengers stemmed from IndiGo's "internal crisis" following the implementation of the new passenger safety norms.
"We care about pilots, crew, and passengers, and we have communicated this clearly to all airlines. IndiGo was responsible for managing its crew and roster. Passengers suffered significant inconvenience, and we are not treating this matter lightly.
