|December 28, 2025
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation has relieved Ravinder Singh Jamwal of his additional charge as director of operations (FSD), the division responsible for administering pilot fatigue rules and approving airline crew duty schemes, according to an order dated December 23.
Jamwal held the FSD, or flight standards directorate, position when DGCA granted IndiGo exemptions from stricter crew fatigue rules on December 6, during the airline’s operational meltdown that saw over 5,000 flight cancellations strand tens of thousands of passengers. He will retain his designated portfolio as director of Airspace and Air Navigation Services, according to the order issued as multiple government investigations into the crisis continue.
