Air tickets may get expensive during Diwali, Chhath; will DGCA step in to curb festive season airfare surge

By -


The Ministry of Civil Aviation has taken a tough stance to curb the exorbitant price increases that accompany the festive season especially in view of  forthcoming festivals Diwali and Chhath. The ministry has directed the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to monitor airfares during the festive season and take necessary action if fares rise sharply. It has also directed airlines to operate additional flight.

DGCA is mandated by Ministry of Civil Aviation (MoCA) to keep a watch on airfares, especially during the festive season and take appropriate measures in case of a surge in prices.

Accordingly, the DGCA proactively took up the issue with airlines and asked them to augment flight capacities for the festive season by deploying additional flights to meet high demand.

In response, airlines informed that they are adding the following additional flights.

IndiGo: Deployment of approx. 730 additional flights across 42 sectors.

Air India & Air India Express: Deployment of approx. 486 additional flights across 20 sectors.

SpiceJet: Deployment of approx. 546 additional flights across 38 sectors.

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation will maintain rigorous oversight of airline fares and flight capacities to protect passengers’ interests during the festive season.

1) What do you think about Pushpa Impossible as a show and the character that you are playing? What was your reaction when you were approached? Pushpa Impossible is a show that encourages people from all genders to live optimistically, surviving against obstacles in front of them. This show demonstrates impressive courage and determination through Pushpa, who struggles throughout to support her children after her husband is absconding. She never gave up in the face of adversity, and this same energy is passed onto our audience.  When I was approached by the makers of the show to do the character of Dipti, I was excited. For a long time, I was engaged in negative roles, and I wished to do something positive like the current role of Dipti.  The character of Dipti is bright, mature and has clarity about life. I am happy about doing this character since her maturity really teaches me a lot about handling situations. Undoubtedly, I am growing as an actor in this role and more as...
