DGCA Introduces Rules for Ground Handling Service Providers
The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has introduced comprehensive rules for ground handling service providers (GHSP). The new regulations, which must be implemented within six months, address the increasing complexity of ground operations amid the rapid growth in aircraft movements and the rise of third-party ground handling services.
A senior DGCA official highlighted the need for these measures, noting that the sector had previously lacked specific regulations.
