Thiruvananthapuram: The CPI-M Friday held protest marches to all the three international airports in Kerala over the alleged "mistreatment" -- like frequent flight cancellations and withdrawal -- meted out to the state by national carrier Air India.
While the march towards the airport here was led by CPI-M secretary Pinarayi Vijayan, former chief minister V.S. Achuthanandan led the protesters at the Kochi Airport and party politburo member Kodiyeri Balakrishnan took the lead at the Kozhikode airport.
"It's the central government which is behind the bad treatment of our people by Air India. They maintain a stoic silence on everything the national carrier does. Till date, they (central government) have done nothing to address the genuine needs of our people.
"And not to mention our ministers (in Delhi)... They are only worried about creating wealth through dubious means using their office," Achuthanandan said.
