Govt asks AI management to be clear on pilot requirements

The Government appears to be going around in circles over exactly how many pilots it needs to run Air India efficiently.
Till last month, Civil Aviation Ministry officials were asserting that the airline does not need the 750 odd long haul pilots it has on its rolls right now—this number includes pilots affiliated to the Indian Pilots Guild (IPG), AI Express pilots and Executive Pilots.
But now with the prospect of striking pilots joining back work, there seems to be utter confusion over what is the number which is optimal.
