​​​​​​​Delhi, Dec 26: The panel formed on December 5 to probe the IndiGo crisis, on Friday submitted its report to the Ministry of Civil Aviation, Govt. of India for perusal.

The report is now under lock & key, said sources.

The four-member special investigation committee constituted by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to probe large-scale flight disruptions at IndiGo Airlines has completed its inquiry.

The findings of the committee have been shared with the authorities but are currently kept confidential reportedly for corroboration.

During the investigation, the committee focused on several critical questions that included why such a large number of flights were cancelled or delayed, whether the airline’s planning and manpower management were inadequate, and if there was any negligence in implementing the new Flight Duty Time Limit (FDTL) norms.

The panel also examined whether IndiGo failed to carry out timely crew planning and roster management, if DGCA’s directives were properly followed. Meanwhile, the panel also adjudged the officials who are apparently accountable for the operational failures.
