Raj era Aircraft Act 1934 to go but Viceroy’s Territory call sign for India-registered planes to stay

India is planning to replace the colonial-era Aircraft Act of 1934 with a new Aircraft Bill in 2023. The aim is to modernize and simplify processes in the aviation sector. The government also plans to table the Cape Town Convention Bill, which will prevent airlines under insolvency protection from holding on to leased planes and engines.
