The Indian Commercial Pilot’s Association has sought a meeting with Union civil aviation minister Haredeep Singh to brief him on the “ground reality” of pay cuts in Air India.
The association wrote to Puri saying “officials briefing you have grossly misinformed you about the current state of affairs at Air India. Pay cut isn’t across board.We request you for urgent meeting so we may brief you on ground reality,” according to ANI
Last week, senior pilots in Air India had expressed discontent over the differences in pay cuts announced by the national carrier for pilots and senior management.
They claimed that the salaries of top AI officials have been reduced by a smaller percentage compared to their pay cuts.
