Trichy: The Airport Authority of India (AAI) came in for sharp criticism by all stakeholders in overseas cargo handling business at a meeting here on Wednesday. Trade representatives from Trichy region complained that the authorities, instead of improving the infrastructure facilities at the airport here, were only paying lip service to the cause.
B K Mehrotra, AAI general manager (cargo), who attended the bimonthly meeting for the first time, was the target of cargo handlers' ire over inadequate facilities. S A Seyyed, the managing director of ABS Xpress, blamed the AAI for not delivering on promised facilities, though 12 bimonthly meetings were held with trade representatives.
What infuriated the customs house agents (CHAs) most was the fact that the even cargo trolleys were in bad condition. Most of them would not move literally.
