Air India brass performance to be reviewed

MUMBAI: Civil aviation minister Vyalar Ravi will review the performance of the Air India brass. "Air India's top management's performance will be reviewed to find out ways to better the airline," Mr Ravi said on Thursday. He did not say whether a restructuring at the the top deck is imminent but hinted at the possibility of a new review system.

"Air India's top management is still there and I will not comment on if they will still continue to be there or not," he added.

He said the approach for a turnaround for Air India will be fresh and different from the past.

After meeting the unions over the last two days, the minister said workers problems and the performance of the top management are two different issues. "I have not looked at the top management of the airline (till now) but will look at the whole management now," said Mr Ravi.
