When the AAI employees union came up with a 200-page documents on the PIL, Chief Justice J S Khehar said "I am unhappy with this. My whole vacation was spent on this, trying to resolve it. I have never seen such things in my life. You are making it an issue whether you gain or lose." The court then granted four weeks time to Bengaluru International Airport Limited (BIAL), AAI, the state and the central governments to file their objections to it. The PIL had been filed by AAI employees union challenging the Centre's move to close down the existing HAL airport after the new Bangalore International Airport commenced operation from March 30, 2008.
