New Delhi: Concerned over “unsatisfactory performance” of Indian
airlines in taking on foreign competition, the Government is considering
a new strategy to motivate them to perform and take away the overseas
flying rights of those who fail to do so.
“We have to work out a strategy that will motivate our players to perform. The reality is that Indian players are not able to perform — neither the public nor the private sector (airlines),” Civil Aviation Minister P Ashok Gajapathi Raju told PTI here.
He was replying to questions on the performance of Indian carriers vis-a-vis the bilateral air traffic rights granted to them and foreign carriers to fly to each others’ countries.
To a question on the air traffic rights between India and countries like Dubai, Raju said, “Nobody believes that the (air service) agreements were done with any commercial analysis in mind.”
So, decisions at very high levels still raise questions of integrity which, at those levels, should not happen. Now, in the event of this being a fact, then it becomes very unbecoming,” the Minister said in an interview.
