Air India pilots go on indefinite hunger strike in New Delhi

Even as their agitation enters the 48th day, Air India pilots today began their indefinite hunger strike in New Delhi to highlight their demands for career progression and other issues. Around 400 pilots were seen sitting on hunger strike saying that the management had refused to talk to the pilots at all, so this was one way of getting attention to the issues that they needed to start a dialogue. Pilots said that they wanted to go back to work, demanding the management to take all the pilots back and start discussion with the unions, so that normalcy could be resumed.
