New Delhi: The Air India pilots’ union that spearheaded a 10-day strike recently has sought the civil aviation ministry’s intervention in revoking suspension and termination orders against nine pilots.
The union alleged that the airline management was dragging its feet on the matter five days after the strike was withdrawn.
“We regret to inform you that despite an explicit agreement… the management of Air India has yet to revoke the terminations or suspensions of all the nine pilots,” Rishabh Kapur, general secretary of the Indian Commercial Pilots Association (ICPA), said in a letter to civil aviation minister Vayalar Ravi.
Demanding removal of Air India CMD Arvind Jadhav, the ICPA said: “His continued presence at the helm of affairs is a sure recipe for disaster for Industrial Relations and the very future of our beloved National Carrier.”
