New Delhi: UN aviation watchdog ICAO had raised objections on licensing procedures for non-scheduled operators and airworthiness of some of the aircraft modified abroad but India is yet to receive the draft report of a December security audit from it, the DGCA chief said today.
"ICAO has not made the draft report available to us of the audit carried out by them in December last year, so there is no question of misleading the Parliament on the issue," Arun Mishra, Director General of Indian aviation regulator the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) told reporters on the sidelines of a seminar.
He was replying to a question on reports raising doubts about Aviation Ministry's stand in Parliament that it had not received the safety audit draft report by International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO), of which India is also a member.
