AIR INDIA PILOTS GOING FOR HUNGER STRIKE

Air India pilots announced for a hunger strike from Sunday onwards. "We have received the mandatory clearances for going on a hunger strike. Eight members of our union will sit on fast from Sunday at Jantar Mantar here," Rohit Kapahi, committee member of Indian Pilots' Guild (IPG), told IANS.

"We along with our families will be there to support our colleagues. We want this strike to end, as soon as possible, but we will not come back to work till our 101 sacked colleagues are reinstated," he said.
 

"We are not waiting for them for ever. We earlier asked them (pilots) to come back and said that no one will be victimized. We had even given a chance to sacked pilots that they can also come back and we will take them back on a case-to-case basis," the minister earlier told IANS. "I have told them my stand, now they need to think," Ajit Singh said.
