The court was hearing pleas filed by Indian Commercial Pilots Association, Indian Pilots Guild and Federation of Indian Pilots relating to DGCA’s revised flight duty time limitations

New Delhi: The Delhi High Court on Monday directed the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to strictly adhere to its timeline on implementing the revised norms on duty and rest hours for pilots in a phased manner starting July 1.

Justice Tara Vitasta Ganju was informed by the counsel for the DGCA that they had filed an affidavit stating of the 22 modified clauses of the civil aviation requirement (CAR), 15 would be rolled out from July 1, 2025 and the remaining would put in place by November 1.

“Respondents are bound by the contents of the February 19, 2025 affidavit,” the court said while posting the matter on April 1.

The counsel for petitioner pilots associations urged the court to pass directions that the timelines set out by the respondents in the affidavit should be strictly adhered to.

To this, the counsel for the DGCA said, “We have already filed the affidavit and we are bound by the affidavit. The court may consider disposing of the writ petitions as nothing survives in the pleas now.”

The court was hearing pleas filed by Indian Commercial Pilots Association, Indian Pilots Guild and Federation of Indian Pilots relating to DGCA’s revised flight duty time limitations.

The petitioners’ counsel sought time to take instructions on the issues which survive in the petitions.
