Directorate General of Civil Aviation

                                                       


The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is the Indian governmental regulatory body for civil aviation under the Ministry of Civil Aviation. This directorate investigates aviation accidents and incidents. It is headquartered along Sri Aurobindo Marg, opposite Safdarjung Airport, in New Delhi. DGCA has fourteen Regional Airworthiness Offices (RAO) at Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Cochin, Bhopal, Lucknow, Patna, Bhubaneshwar, Kanpur, Guwahati and Patiala. It has also five Regional Air Safety offices located at Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata and Hyderabad. It has a Regional Research and Development Office located at Bangalore and a Gliding Centre at Pune.

 The Director General of Civil Aviation faced charges of corruption in April 2011, after 14 pilots flying for several airlines were found to have forged their licenses. Additional director at the DGCA, Pradeep Kumar, and also Jyoti Bhattacharya and Mohammed K Ansari, dealing with cash and finances, have been arrested. However, it was found that the files containing the records of several pilots had disappeared from the DGCA offices.There were calls for a thorough investigation of the DGCA "top brass". E K Bharat Bhushan who took over as DGCA from Syed Ahmed Zaidi in December 2010 was dismissed with immediate effect by the Government, six days after his services were extended till year end. No reasons were spelt out for the dismissal. The charge of DGCA has been handed over to Prashant Sukul, temporarily. Sources, however, ascribed sudden removal of Bharat Bhushan to serious difference of opinion with the Civil Aviation Ministry over import of old aircraft and renewal of licences of non-scheduled operators.
