"Over the past 60 years, the growth of SP Guide Publications has mirrored the rising stature of Indian Navy. Its well-researched and informative magazines on Defence and Aerospace sector have served to shape an educated opinion of our military personnel, policy makers and the public alike. I wish SP's Publication team continued success, fair winds and following seas in all future endeavour!"

Minister of Civil Aviation P. Ashok Gajapathi Raju speaking to Mr. Jayant Baranwal, Editor-in-Chief, SP’s, on 5/20 rule

Minister of Civil Aviation P. Ashok Gajapathi Raju

There is no such rule anywhere in the world. It is unfortunate that India is imbibing such rules. We can regulate the international sector and such rules are pushing back this sector as well as the economy. The centre government's job is to promote Indian carriers. We will make the whole thing transparent, the minister had said.

"There is no such rule anywhere in the world. It is unfortunate that India is imbibing such rules."

P. Ashok Gajapathi Raju

 

The current norms allow Indian carriers to complete five years of domestic operations and have a fleet of 20 aircraft before they are allowed to fly international. This is, however, not the case globally. Government is actively considering, and it is in advance stage of a cabinet decision. Raju said the government was committed to promoting the Indian carriers.
