The officers and staff union of grounded carrier Jet Airways Friday sought Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis’ intervention in resolving the crisis being faced by over 22,000 employees of the company, who have not been paid since March.
“Fadnavis has assured full support to workout a solution with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and civil aviation ministry after the last round of polling is completed and model code of conduct is withdrawn,” president of the All India Jet Airways Officers and Staff Association and NCP law maker Kiran Pawaskar said in a statement.
Earlier, he led a delegation of committee members to the CM’s residence along with Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Council Dhananjay Munde and apprised Fadnavis of the hardships faced by the airline’s 22,000 employees.
