Air India pilots' indefinite fast enters 6th day, 2 more hospitalised

New Delhi: Two more Air India pilots were shifted to hospital today after their condition deteriorated on the sixth day of their indefinite fast here and in Mumbai.
So far, five pilots -- three in Delhi and two in Mumbai -- have been hospitalised since they began their hunger strike on Sunday.
Capt Anchit Bhardwaj and Capt Ajay Goyal were shifted to RML hospital from the agitation venue at Jantar Mantar, agitating pilots said.
About 12 pilots in Mumbai and 15 in Delhi are on indefinite hunger strike from Sunday. Over 400 IPG pilots have been on strike since May 7.
The Indian Pilots' Guild (IPG), leading the 53-day long strike and the hunger strike, again criticised the management for not taking any initiative to resolve the impasse.
