Mangalore: Union Minister for Civil Aviation Ajit Singh said on Monday that there has been slight delay in Air India receiving turnaround money for its revival. Once Air India receives the money, it would pay dues it owes to private airline operators, he said.
Briefing reporters on the sidelines of inauguration of air cargo complex and CUTE facility at Mangalore Airport he said Air India too has identified few properties on an internal turnaround plan after complaints on poor financial management, weak performance and customer dissatisfaction.
On delay in payment of salaries to Air India staff, he said, “We have sorted out the issue. Now, there has been no complaints on delay payment.” On promotion, he said the process is on.
