PIL filed seeking direction to stop Spicejet operations

A Public Interest Litigation (PIL) has been filed in the Delhi High Court asking the Centre and relevant authorities to issue a directive to halt Spicejet Airlines’ operations due to a number of recent events involving technical difficulties with its aircraft.

Raising security concerns, the petition also sought a direction to pay passengers who faced a threat to their life during the flight and had to deal with the mental trauma of fear of death.
