The Supreme Court of India advised a petitioner not to travel by air while refusing urgent listing of a plea alleging a nearly 700% increase in airfares. The bench, comprising Justices Vikram Nath, Sandeep Mehta, and Aparesh Kumar Singh, noted the fare hike but did not grant urgent hearing. The court is also considering a separate petition seeking an independent aviation regulator and fare control rules, with new regulations expected soon.
