Why the Aviation Ministry Kneels While Citizens Bleed: The Indigo Immunity Scandal
india fines ordinary citizens without a blink — delay your tax, skip a seatbelt, forget PUCC by a day, and the punishment is instant, merciless, and automated.
But when indigo stumbles, fumbles, cancels, delays, humiliates passengers, or creates national headlines with chaos, silence reigns.
No urgency. No accountability. No penalties.
It’s a system where the government roars at the common man but bows before a private airline.
And the aviation ministry under the Modi government has never looked weaker.
1. The Citizen Gets Penalized. The Airline Gets Pampered.
Income tax? Miss a deadline — fine.
Seatbelt? Miss a click — challan.
PUCC? One day late — ₹10,000. But when indigo messes up? Not even a whisper from the ministry.
2. Automated Punishment for Public, Unlimited Excuses for Indigo
government systems chase ordinary people like predators, issuing fines with robotic precision.
But Indigo? It receives extensions, explanations, and exemptions that normal citizens can only dream of.
3. A Ministry That Should Regulate… But Instead Relents
The aviation ministry’s job is to protect passengers, enforce rules, and maintain discipline.
Instead, it bends over backwards, turning oversight into obeisance.
4. When Corporates Become Kings, Governments Become Spectators
IndiGo’s dominance is now so intense that even national inconvenience barely triggers action.
Passengers suffer, airlines shrug, and the ministry simply watches.
5. Modi Government’s Blind Spot: Aviation in Freefall
While other sectors see strict enforcement, aviation floats in a bubble of immunity.
The failure is not subtle — it’s spectacular, embarrassing, and avoidable.
6. If the Public Were Treated Like indigo, india Would Feel Like a Paradise
Imagine no late fees, no penalties, no instant challans — only grace and second chances.
That privilege exists, but only for those flying corporate, not economy.
7. A System That Punishes the Weak and Protects the Mighty
This isn’t governance — it’s hierarchy.
And the common man always sits at the bottom while indigo enjoys the throne.
