Ground handlers body GHAI seeks Home ministry intervention

New Delhi: Seeking Union Home Ministry's intervention in security and safety related issues, particularly self-handling by airlines, in the proposed aviation policy, Ground handlers body GHAI today expressed hope that the Government will address its concerns before finalising it.

The Ground Handling Association of India (GHAI) has sought time from Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh to convey their concerns on certain policy provisions, GHAI Secretary General Arvind Kumar said today.

The GHAI has sought Home Ministry's intervention at a time when the Civil Aviation Ministry is in the process of taking the policy to the Cabinet for its approval.

Ground handling, a key aspect of the aviation sector, generally refers to services provided to an aircraft while it is parked at an airport.
