Air India plans to train more pilots: Ajit


Union Minister for Civil Aviation Ajit Singh has said that Air India was planning to induct and train more pilots in the wake of the stir by pilots. He stressed the need for the airline to become competitive with the rest of the industry for its survival.
Talking to journalists on the sidelines of a book release function here, he said: “I don’t understand why they are on strike. There are no issues.” Whatever few issues they had, the Dharmadhikari report was meant to address them. “We have already started discussions.”
Mr. Singh pointed out that pilots did not give any strike notice and the court had called it ‘illegal.” He asked them to get back to work.
