The joint forum of AAI unions and association has urged the AAI chairman to convene a meeting to discuss the concerns in details over the handing over of six airports to Gujarat-based conglomerate Adani Group.
In a letter to chairman last week, the Forum has also threatened to resort to agitation from next month by holding lunch hour demonstrations and wearing black badges to protest the move.
Last year, the government had decided to privatise airports in Lucknow, Ahmedabad,Jaipur, Mangaluru, Thiruvananthapuram, and Guwahati for operation, management and development through public-private partnership (PPP) model. In February, Adani Enterprises Ltd (AEL) won the rights to run these six airports after competitive bidding. The government last month said the AAI has issued letters of award for handing over Ahmedabad, Lucknow and Mangaluru airports to AEL after the Cabinet nod.
