☁️ AAKASH KAWACH – National Sky Security & Air Safety Mission
🌐 www.ipvsurakshaakawach.com 📞 9654379155
“To secure the Indian sky by ensuring clean air, safe airspace, regulated drone operations, and advanced aviation awareness — creating a safe and sustainable aerial environment for every citizen.”
Vision:
An India where every breath of air and every flight in the sky is safe, pure, and secure.
Tagline:
☁️ “Protecting the Sky, Preserving the Future – Aakash Kawach for Every Citizen.”
The last decade (2015–2025) has seen rapid deterioration in India’s air quality and rising threats to sky safety — from pollution to drones, bird strikes, and unregulated airspace use.
Key problems include:
Hazardous air quality across 80% of urban India.
Rising flight congestion and near-miss incidents.
Drone misuse for smuggling, surveillance, and terrorism.
Frequent bird strikes and aviation disruptions.
Lack of public awareness on air and sky safety.
Unpredictable weather and climate-related flight risks.
Despite strong growth in aviation and aerospace technology, India lacks a unified Sky Security Framework that connects environment, technology, and citizen awareness.
Hence, Aakash Kawach will bridge this gap — combining air safety, sky security, and public responsibility into one national program.
Create a National Sky Security Network integrating environment, aviation, and technology.
Ensure clean air, safe skies, and smart airspace governance in every region of India.
Regulate drone operations, laser usage, and airspace discipline through citizen cooperation.
Build Aakash Kawach Command Centres (AKCCs) for real-time monitoring.
Launch Sky Awareness & Clean Air Campaigns for citizens.
Develop a Sky Incident Response System linking civil aviation, police, and meteorology.
