CM to take up Air India Air Transport Services Limited job security issue with Centre
Thiruvananthapuram: Chief minister Oommen Chandy has promised that the jobs of 40-odd Air India Air Transport Services Limited (AIATSL) staff, currently employed at the Trivandrum Airport, will be secure and that no one will be forcefully evicted from their current positions.
“I had a conversation with Vyalar Ravi (when he was Union aviation minister) regarding job security of the AIATSL employees and I will take up the matter with Ravi again,” said the chief minister during the Cabinet briefing on Thursday.
The management of Air India’s joint venture company, Air India-Singapore Airport Terminal Services (AI-Sats), had assured the AIATSL staff that any decision regarding change in employment would be taken only in consultation with the state government.
