Vijay Mallya, the promoter of the now-defunct Kingfisher Airlines, on Tuesday hit out at the Narendra Modi government over the Jet Airways resolution rolled out a day before. The attack after Jet’s lenders, led by State Bank of India, announced that they would pump in Rs 1,500 crore to save the airline.
“Happy to see that PSU Banks have bailed out Jet Airways saving jobs, connectivity and enterprise. Only wish the same was done for Kingfisher,” he said in a tweet.
Accusing the Narendra Modi-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) govt of double standards, Mallya said the same PSU banks had “let India’s finest airline (Kingfisher) with the best employees and connectivity fail ruthlessly.”
