Air India sacks 30 more striking pilots


New Delhi: The Air India crisis has entered the 15th day on Tuesday and there is still no clarity on when the pilots' strike will end.
Civil Aviation Minister Ajit Singh met 13 Air India unions on Monday to discuss the turnaround plan and the future of the national carrier. While sources claimed that one of the requests by the unions was to reinstate the 71 sacked pilots, the Air India management went ahead and sacked 30 more pilots.
Meanwhile, to minimise passenger inconvenience Air India has extended their curtailed flight operations and contingency plan till May 25.
