  • Recent Trend in Indian Air Transport with Reference to Transport Economics and Logistic
    © 2019 JETIR June 2019, Volume 6, Issue 6 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Recent Trend in Indian Air Transport with Reference to Transport Economics and Logistic Dr Vijay Kumar Mishra, Lecturer (Applied Economics), S.J.N.P.G College, Lucknow Air transport is the most modern means of transport which is unmatched by its speed, time- saving and long- distance operation. Air transport is the fastest mode of transport which has reduced distances and converted the world into one unit. But it is also the costliest mode of transport beyond the reach of many people. It is essential for a vast country like India where distances are large and the terrain and climatic conditions so diverse. Through it one can easily reach to remote and inaccessible areas like mountains, forests, deserts etc. It is very useful during the times of war and natural calamities like floods, earthquakes, famines, epidemics, hostility and collapse of law and order. The beginning of the air transport was made in 1911 with a 10 km air mail service between Allahabad and Naini. The real progress was achieved in 1920 when some aerodromes were constructed and the Tata Sons Ltd. started operating internal air services (1922). In 1927 Civil Aviation Department was set up on the recommendation of Air Transport Council. Flying clubs were opened in Delhi, Karachi, Calcutta (now Kolkata) and Bombay (now Mumbai) in 1928. In 1932 Tata Airways Limited introduced air services between Karachi and Lahore. In 1932, Air India began its journey under the aegis of Tata Airlines, a division of Tata Sons Ltd.

Space mission: Substantial developments in technology, specially space technology, in the later half of twentieth century resulted in the development of space crafts making space voyage possible. Since then, more than a thousand artificial satellites have been placed into orbits around the earth. Additionally, space missions have been undertaken for close observation of various objects in our solar system. We can classify the space missions into two categories. In one type of missions, the objective is to put artificial satellites in orbits around the earth for research and various other useful applications. The objective of second type of missions is to send the spacecrafts to outer space for close observations and understanding of the objects in solar system, or even outside the solar system. Do you know? The first person to go into the space in a spacecraft was Yuri Gagarin of the then USSR.

The national intellectual property regimes are generally based on territoriality. The application of national law to situation in space might cause problems. The focus of this paper is to discuss the present space law regime vis-a-vis its implications on intellectual property protection of inventions made in the space. The first part introduces the subject. The second part examines the present space law regime and possible approach to intellectual property protection and liability of infringement in space. The third part of the paper provides a basic view of patentability criteria of inventions made in space. Trade secret protection is another area of discussion in collaborative research. Remote sensing principles and copy right protection is analyzed along with international law principle on remote sensing. The fourth part examines the Indian space activities and IP protection. The paper concludes that the present regimes are not sufficient to deal with inventions made in space and appropriate amendments should be made to the existing regimes to include inventions made in the space. Other aspects like, criminal, civil and tortuous liabilities

  • MEA Jan 19, 2019 India's Next Big Dream! Send an Indianinto Space
    MEA Jan 19, 2019 India’s next Big Dream! Send an Indianinto Space on Indian Technology. New Delhi, India, January 19, 2019 By: Pallava Bagla India has a new dream, a deep conviction to launch an Indian into space, from Indian soil on an Indian rocket by 2022 which is before the seventy-fifth birthday for India’s independence. Work has started in right earnest at the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) which is expected to deliver this Herculean task in less than 1.4 billion dollars, possibly the cheapest human space flight ever to be undertaken in the world. This confidence and promise comes riding on the repeated successes that the Indian space agency has tasted in the past. Speaking from the ramparts of the Red Fort in Delhi, on August 15, 2018 Prime Minister Narendra Modi a known space buff said `we have a dream; our scientists have a dream. We have resolved that by 2022, when India celebrates 75 years of Independence or maybe even before that, certainly some of our young boys and girls will unfurl the tricolour in space. With Mangalyaan our scientists have proved their capabilities. I feel proud to announce that very soon as a part of our manned-space mission; we shall be sending an Indian into space. This will be done through the pursuit of our esteemed scientists, and we will proudly find ourselves as the fourth such nation to have launched a successful man space mission.’ When India succeeds it will be the fourth country after Russia, United States of America and China that have independent capabilities to launch humans into space.

  • Chapter Ii: Ministry of Civil Aviation
    Report No. 21 of 2015 (Volume I) CHAPTER II: MINISTRY OF CIVIL AVIATION Airports Authority of India 2.1 Allotment of land for setting up and operations of flying clubs 2.1.1 Introduction Airports Authority of India (AAI) was formed by merger of International Airports Authority of India and National Airports Authority and came into existence on 1 April 1995 with the enactment of the Airports Authority of India Act, 1994. Section 11 of the Act envisaged that AAI in the discharge of its functions under the Act shall act on business principles. Till formation of AAI, Director General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) allotted land and hangar spaces to various flying schools/clubs/academies to impart training and other aviation related activities. This work was taken over by AAI from 1995. Till 2007, AAI did not have a defined policy for levying charges on flying schools/ flying clubs. In February 2007, AAI decided to classify flying clubs into two categories which are as follows: Category I: - Flying clubs/flying training organization registered as educational societies and operating on ‘no profit no loss’ basis to be charged nominal rates i.e. @ 10 per cent of the normal rates. Category II: - All other flying clubs/institutions to be charged at normal AAI rates for various services. There were 32 flying clubs/schools situated at various airports, under the control of AAI, in India (March 2014). The scope of audit was limited to the review of records at the AAI Corporate Office and examination of records at five regional headquarters Chennai (Southern), Mumbai (Western), Delhi (Northern), Kolkata (Eastern and North Eastern) and Hyderabad for a period of three years ended 31 March 2013; however, the data given in the para has been updated upto 31 March 2014.

India saw the growth of airlines from the beginning of the twentieth century albeit, in the private sector, India also witnessed Nationalization followed by privatization. With a multitude of domestic and global players, aviation in India grew leaps and bounds. Many private airlines wound up on various accounts, many were born as well. The Government of India ensured that Air India and its subsidiaries which were successful till the 1970s and were losing steam on account of bureaucratic and political apathy was funding the behemoth, which turned out to be a loss-making enterprise. The world of aviation has seen plenty of Acquisitions, Mergers, Joint-ventures, Alliances, Partnerships and other business combinations as researched and studied by Prof. Benjamin Gomes-Casseres in his Remix Strategy. The Research paper is a work in progress which is focusing on the dynamics of what the TATA Sons are doing to ensure a revert back to the business that they originally founded in 1932.
