New Delhi: Two major aviation PSUs - Airports Authority of India (AAI) and Pawan Hans Helicopters Limited, which were headless for several months, would soon have their top posts filled, with the Public Enterprises Selection Board (PESB) shortlisting candidates for the two positions.
While R K Srivastava, a 1984 batch IAS officer of Jharkhand cadre, has been selected from 10 candidates as Chairman AAI by PESB, the name of Dr B P Sharma, Executive Director at AAI who is currently the Kolkata Airport Director, has been shortlisted out of 12 candidates to be the CMD of Pawan Hans, official sources said.
The two names would now be sent to the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet, headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, for final approval, they said.
While Pawan Hans has been without a full-time CMD for about two years, AAI is being headed by Sudhir Raheja, Member (Planning) of AAI Board, an acting Chairman since January.
Air India too has remained practically headless since the incumbent, Rohit Nandan, was granted three month's extension for his successor to be chosen, after his three-year term ended in August. His extended term now ends in mid-November.
