No strike, says Air India union


The threat of Air India's services being disrupted from April 2 seems to have receded.
This follows the Air Corporation Employees Union (ACEU) claiming that there will be "no strike" by ground staff, cabin crew and other categories belonging to its union.
A section of the airline staff had threatened to go on strike from April 2 unless their salary dues were paid. The unions claimed that airline employees had not been paid for the past six months. The call for a strike was given after the unions rejected the management's proposal to settle the dues in a phased manner by May.
"Every summer, Air India workers are instigated by disgruntled elements to go on strike. Time and again, certain vested interest groups mislead people, in general, to create confusion among the passengers of Air India and, as a result, passengers stop making future bookings and this gives benefits to our private rival airlines," the ACEU said.
