Jet Airways chairman Naresh Goyal Friday urged his employees to bear with him in the “difficult situation” that the airline is going through for some more time and said he is willing to make any “sacrifice” to keep the airline afloat. In an emotional letter, Goyal also assured his employees of keeping them abreast of all the developments in the wake of the airline’s rescue plan by the lenders, which has already been approved both by the board and shareholders.
“The deep emotion… leads me to appeal to each of you from my heart, to bear with me through this difficult situation a little longer, till we emerge out of turbulence and fiscal challenges, into clear blue skies,” Goyal said in the letter. His letter came a day after reports emerged that he has agreed to step down from the chairmanship of the loss-making carrier, in which lenders have now become the largest shareholders.
