As decks are being cleared for privatisation of national carrier Air India, Government is considering five key suggestions given by Ajay Singh-controlled SpiceJet to make India a global aviation hub.
Niti Aayog, the government’s think tank, has written to the Civil Aviation Ministry for giving its recommendation on the five concessions sought by SpiceJet.
Although forwarded by SpiceJet, the suggestions have been termed as recommendation of Indian carriers.
Official sources said that Niti Aayog in a letter to Civil Aviation Ministry last month forwarded the recommendations on “industry-wide concerns and recommendation of Indian carriers for urgent intervention.”
