National auditor Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) has found faults with state-run Airports Authority of India’s manpower redeployment following the handing over of Delhi and Mumbai airports to private firms led by infrastructure majors GMR and GVK respectively.
In a draft report, the auditor has pointed out that the airport developer recruited nearly 1,300 fresh staff instead of gainfully utilising the service of over 3,000 surplus staff who had to be redeployed after operation support period ended at the two privatised airports.
“Though new recruitments took place in other regions yet idle manpower continued to exist at privatised airports resulting in additional manpower cost. The voluntary retirement scheme (VRS) was offered to redeployed staff of DIAL and MIAL only and the same was not extended to other airport staff,” said the draft report.
