Jitendra Bhargava wants Air India book blaming Praful Patel to take off in e-space

Mumbai: Former Air India Executive Director Jitendra Bhargava, whose book blaming Praful Patel for the near grounding of the national carrier has been pulled off the shelves after an out-of-court settlement between the ex-Aviation Minister and publisher, now plans to e-publish it.
He has also slammed the legal settlement between Patel, now Union Heavy Industries Minister, and the publisher, as it was reached without consulting him.
"A lot of e-publishers have been approaching me for my book. I may exercise this option," Bhargava told PTI.
"A lot of Air India employees, particularly retired ones, have a lot of emotional connect with this book and they would be wanting to read it as well," he said.
'The Descent of Air India' chronicles the financial woes of the airline caused by alleged Government interference in its functioning and decisions taken by it that were detrimental to the national carrier's interests.
