DGCA Tightens Rules for Helicopter Services After Uttarakhand Accident
Following a helicopter accident near Badrinath, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has mandated that helicopter services, including those for the Char Dham Yatra, must now operate with two pilots. Helicopter operators have protested this new rule, stating it will increase their costs and disrupt operations. They have written to the DGCA and UGADA requesting a reconsideration of the decision.
