A bench of Chief Justice D N Patel and Justice C Hari Shankar issued a notice to the Centre, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), IndiGo and GoAir on the petition that contended that the entire fleet of A320neo aircraft should be grounded “in the larger interest of public safety.”
The plea, by an association, has alleged that despite being aware of “significant technical issues with Airbus A320neo,” neither the Ministry of Civil Aviation (MCA) nor the DGCA has taken any concrete steps to ground these aircraft.
