A spot audit and scrutiny revealed that practical training sessions conducted by the airline were completed and simulated without the mandated requisite regulatory approvals, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) said in a release.
This has raised significant concerns regarding the adequacy of training standards and operational readiness, it added.
