AAI, vendors meet to redress grievances

To build an effective business partnership with the vendors, the Airports Authority of India (AAI) is working on a series of suggestions to ensure more transparency in its dealings and address issues of cost reduction and curbing corrupt practices.
The decision came after a meeting AAI Chairman VP Agrawal and other officials had with the vendors here, which was also attended by several independent external monitors like former Civil Aviation Secretary M Madhavan Nambiar, Director General SCOPE UD Choubey and former CPWD Director General JN Bhawani Prasad, an AAI spokesperson said.
Agrawal said the meeting gave the vendors an opportunity to redress their grievances and create mutual trust so as to deal with the issues of cost reduction, curbing corrupt practice and improving image of AAI and vendors collectively. The AAI chief also assured the vendors that their suggestions would be duly considered for appropriate decisions so that "a transparent and efficient business partnership" can be carried by the vendors and the airports body.
