Let the strike contine for as long as possible. Then once the airline is in loses it is best to privatise the whole lot AI,IA and AIX. Then these shabby employees will realise their true worth. Let the ppl suffer for short time than running these govt. airlines which just spoil the name of the country. As it is most of the employees are SC/ST/OBC., time to privatise.

what has the caste to do. you should behave with dignity. the striking employees should be sacked mercilessly without clearing the dues. They and their families realise hence forth.

what rubbish you are talking about. u know how these employees are suffering on the hands of the management and the government for the past ten years. try to understand their agony, these people are not getting their rights on time and management is holding back their money and these poor employees are depending upon loans and advances for running their bread and shelter. people are suffering for a few hours/days but these people are suffering for the past ten years, right, so just mind your words and try to understand their plight. they are also human beings, having families and for the past ten years they were simply relying on talks and no strike was caused by them, but now they are compelled by the management and the government to do so, so blame the govt./management and not the poor employees. even pilots and engineers of the same organisation got highly paid salaries, but these low staff is deprived of their rights, so be sympathatic with them.

This is unbelievable and totally baseless. Even the employees are not saying that they are not getting their money. They are striking because they want parity in promotions with AI staff. That's all. Where has this problem of past ten years' suffering come from?

It is like more loyal than the king. These people are much better of than 99% of the rest.
I saw some pictures of our so called NRIs, herded by the dozen, in one furnace like room and even sleeping in the toilets, in the gulf. They are the workers building super luxury apartments. They visit India for few days once in many years and these "Indian" masters roll out red carpets in this manner.
Please send these "Indians" for some days to live in these conditions. They have to count their blessings. Most do not even know where their next meal is coming from and these people and attitude have outlived their time.
Please look for another job, if not satisfied and feel victimised. The door is always open for you when others do not even have them. The airlines do not belong to you and the customers are the paymasters.
I would urge the govt to throw open all sectors, so that the fare paying passengers get some relief. Use this as an opportunity to get out of the mess once and for all.
To people who feel sympathy, yours is misplaced. Go out to the streets and let your kindness be shown to the real downtrodden.

Dear Amar
Exactly this is the reason the airline should be privatised.Employees will get more salary,incentives for good performance,more revenues for airline...and hence more benefits for the employees.Of course no work no pay and no job also...but should we symphatise with such few people who will not work and lose job?
