Indigo's Bhatia alleges govt favouring a select few airlines

Kolkata: Indigo Airlines co-promoter Rahul Bhatia Saturday alleged that the government is "tinkering" with aviation policies for "a select few".
"Our principle issue is why is the government tinkering with policies for a select few in the industry," Bhatia, Managing Director of InterGlobe Enterprises Group, said while speaking on the success of Indigo here.
Claiming his company knew about "artificial competition" from Air India, he said, "But, what we didn't know and regret is the government's relentless effort to keep inefficient private operators in business."
"We probably are a zero debt company, not owing money to anybody, and pitched against competition, which gets sop after sop. But this game will end soon," he said at the annual session and AGM of the Indian Chamber of Commerce.
