Aviation Minister Suresh Prabhu on Tuesday directed his Ministry’s secretary to hold an emergency meeting on the debt-ridden Jet Airways massively cancelling flights after grounding of a large part of its fleet.
The Minister’s direction came in the wake of the airliner drastically reducing its operations due to liquidity crunch.
“Directed Secretary, @MOCA GOI to hold an emergency meeting on grounding of flights by Jet Airways, advance bookings, cancellations, refunds and safety issues, if any,” Prabhu said in a tweet.
“Asked him (civil aviation secretary) to get a report on Jet compliance issues immediately from DGCA,” he added.
