Hoax or Horror: The Unprecedented Surge in Flight Threats

India’s airlines are facing a never-before, nowhere-else crisis.

Join host Anirban Chowdhury as he speaks with The Economic Times’ airline tracker Arindam Majumder, Shyamala D., former DIG of the Central Industrial Security Force, and Rajesh Chandra, former head of the Bureau of Civil Aviation Security, to break down the situation, its impact, and the measures being taken.
