ISHAN Initiative


Why is it in the news?

  • The Airports Authority of India (AAI) has initiated the ISHAN (Indian Single Sky Harmonized Air Traffic Management) Initiative.

 More about the news

  • It involves consolidating India’s Flight Information Regions (FIRs) into a single system overseen from Nagpur.
  • Indian airspace is presently divided into 4 FIRs: Mumbai, Kolkata, Delhi, Chennai, and a sub-FIR in Guwahati. Each FIR is managed separately, leading to potential inefficiencies.
  • Unifying these FIRs under a single authority located in Nagpur aims to enhance efficiency, safety, and seamlessness in air traffic operations.
