Private players in ground handling services at Hyderabad airport

Hyderabad: With the Union Government allowing developers of new airports to outsource ground-handling and cargo services, the upcoming international airport will have private players offering them.
What is being hitherto handled either by airline companies themselves or the Airports Authority of India will now be a domain of private companies, once the airport becomes operational.
Beginning with passenger check-in, many important services come in to play to avoid any hitch in the travel.
The services that go into ground-handling include ticket sales and service counters, aircraft pushback and towing, aircraft loading and unloading, de-icing and others form part of it.
