Thiruvananthapuram: Protest mounts from various quarters against the move of the Centre to privatize Thiruvananthapuram International Airport. On Monday, the district wing of the Left Democratic Federation (LDF) observed black-day at Chackai in front of the entrance of the International Airport here.
The protest was organised in the wake of the authorities’ move to initiate tendering procedures to privatise the airport. Meanwhile, a group of employees of the airport has begun a relay hunger strike in front of the administrative building of the domestic terminal in protest against the privatisation move.
Inaugurating the black day observation at Cha-ckai, CPI (M) state secretary Kodiyeri Balakris-hnan alleged that the BJP government is trying to sell public sector undertakings to raise funds for winning elections.
He alleged that the Centre is aiming for the huge commission they get by selling the airports for private parties.
