India records over 1.5 Crore domestic passengers in a single month, says Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu

 
The Civil Aviation Minister further said that technology alone cannot guarantee safety. He said it can assist, but judgement, composure and responsibility will always be human. He said the Airports Authority of India (AAI) has earmarked 3,490 crore rupees for modernising infrastructure, including 1,532 crore rupees for automation of the air traffic management system.
 
The Minister further stated that as India’s aviation sector continues to expand, Air Traffic Controllers will play a pivotal role in managing increasing air traffic, ensuring safe and efficient aircraft movement, and strengthening the foundation for a safer, smarter and more connected aviation future.
