Air India asks pilots union to maintain peace in wake of ‘commanders/workers’ controversy

Air India has asked one of its pilots unions to maintain peace and harmony in the interest of the carrier while clarifying that the decision to remove commanders from workmen category was taken by the labour ministry and not by the airline management.
Indian Commercial Pilots Association (ICPA), one of the pilots unions of Air India, had yesterday directed all its members to stick to mandated duty hours and not to accept any request for extension.

“You have mentioned in your communication that Air India management has taken the law into their hand by issuing the said notification.
