'Fake pilot' probe: Top DGCA official relieved of duty pending inquiry

Delhi: The probe into the 'fake pilots' probe has now reached the top echelons of aviation watchdog, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA).
RS Passi, the joint director of DGCA has been relieved of his duties pending probe into his role into his daughter procuring a fake pilot license.
Mr Passi is the father of Garima Passi who quit SpiceJet airlines last month following allegations of attaining a pilot license under "extraordinary circumstances".
Alongwith Mr Passi, 8-9 DGCA officials are also under the scanner and have been asked to explain how their relatives procured pilot licenses.
The functioning of the DGCA has been under a cloud ever since it was discovered that parents of two accused pilots, including Garima Passi, worked with the regulatory body.
