AAI unions to stage protest against airports privatisation
Mumbai: The joint forum of AAI unions and associations will take out a protest march at New Delhi’s Jantar Mantar on Thursday against airports privatisation.
Last year, the government had decided to privatise airports in Lucknow, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, Mangaluru, Thiruvananthapuram, and Guwahati for operation, management and development through public-private partnership (PPP) model.
The forum alleges that the government has “unilaterally” decided to privatise dozens of profit-making airports, which is neither in public interest nor for better management of these aerodromes.
