The government has set up a committee to dig out the alleged role of insiders in the issuance of bogus pilot licences. Our correspondent quoting sources in the Ministry of Civil Aviation reports a twelve member committee would probe charges that several insiders had a role in the churning of tampered and fudged pilot licences. Besides submitting its report in six weeks' time, the committee will offer opinions on how well to contain the rut, cleanse the system and make correct the fault lines in the examination process of accreditation of commanders in airlines. A Joint Secretary in the Civil Aviation ministry would supervise the committee's findings. The committee will also include independent aviation analysts, seniors from the National Informatics Centre, experts from Air India and specialists from the Indian Air Force. Earlier, besides going for a complete overhaul of the pilot licencing system the DGCA had announced setting up of an independent body of experts that would probe into the functioning of flying schools that included not just the quality aspect but also infrastructure and scanning of records that go to the making of licences for aspiring pilots. So far, six arrests have been made in the fake licence scam, that includes two pilots – IndiGo pilot Parminder Kaur Gulati and Air India's J K Verma.
