The Civil Aviation Ministry on Thursday asked DGCA to file a safety audit within 30 days after several passengers on board a Jet Airways flight from Mumbai to Jaipur suffered ear and nose bleeds following cabin crew's negligence. The incident occurred after the aircraft staff "forgot" to turn on a switch that controls cabin air pressure. Aviation regulator DGCA said that during the climb stage of the flight, the crew had forgotten to select 'bleed switch' due to which cabin pressure could not be maintained. "As a result, oxygen masks got deployed," it said.
