In 2024, domestic airlines in India encountered 427 incidents of technical faults in their aircraft, according to recent government data. This figure reflects a significant concern for the aviation industry, highlighting potential issues in aircraft maintenance and operational safety.

The data, released by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), reveals that these technical faults ranged from minor issues to more severe problems that could impact flight safety. The majority of these incidents were reportedly managed without serious disruptions to flight schedules, but they underscore the critical importance of rigorous maintenance protocols.

The DGCA has launched investigations into these incidents to understand their causes and to implement measures to prevent future occurrences. Airlines are also being urged to enhance their maintenance practices and ensure that any technical issues are addressed promptly to avoid jeopardising passenger safety.

The government has reiterated its commitment to ensuring the highest safety standards in aviation and is working with airlines to address these concerns.
