Air India will be divested and, at the same time, the interests of its employees will be looked after, Civil Aviation Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said on Monday.
“Do not ever be under the impression that this time around there will be any problems (in the sale of Air India). There will not be (any). The interest I am seeing in the acquisition and the quarters I am seeing it (from)…I am reassured. The requirement of the staff and the important people who run it will be foremost,” Puri said.
He was speaking at an event held to hand over a letter of appreciation from the Prime Minister to the airline’s crew who operated two relief flights to Wuhan in China to bring back over 600 Indian and Maldivian citizens from the epicentre of the coronavirus outbreak.
