India’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation ordered inspections on several Boeing plane models after the Air India crash on June 12 that killed over 200 people.

The plane crashed into a medical college and hospital hostel shortly after takeoff, killing 261 people, including all but one passenger and over a dozen people on the ground.
