Civil Aviation Ministry Issues Show-Cause Notice to Air India Over Delhi Airport Immigration Skip

THE BRIEF
1

The Civil Aviation Ministry issued a show-cause notice to Air India CEO Campbell Wilson over procedural lapses that allowed three Italian passengers to skip immigration at Delhi airport on September 4.

2

The three passengers flew from Amritsar to Delhi and boarded a Lufthansa flight to Munich without clearing immigration, as their itinerary did not fall under Air India's Hub-and-Spoke model.

Home Secretary Govind Mohan will chair a meeting with aviation and immigration officials on Tuesday to discuss the security lapse.
