Junior civil aviation minister Jayant Sinha told Rajya Sabha that 6 routes awarded under UDAN had been cancelled due to ‘non-performance’ or ‘poor performance’.

I was working as pilot in Air Odisha 6 months in 2018. During this time, They paid me only the equivalent of 2 months of salary. Air Odisha dont have money and dont pay ground staff salary.

I moved to India with my best intention to help to prepare next generations of Indians Captains, but madly I came back to my country with this very bad experience.
Unclear why any airline should “ take a hit “. They should fly where the paying passengers are. No zabardasti, nor any complex maze of cross subsidies.

Twelve to fifteen Cabinet ministers, a slightly larger number of ministers of state and India would have a first rate government, delivering on the promise of MGMG.
