KFA's last ditch effort to end strike

KFA's last ditch effort to end strike

With no end in sight to the 16-day impasse over a lockout and strike by its workers, Kingfisher Airlines management will meet its employees to reach a middle path after the employees declined to call off the strike. The top officials of the parent company, UB Group, apart from the airline top-brass will attend the meet with employees. It comes three days before the lockout, imposed by the airline on October 1 and extended till October 20, is to end. All flights across its network have remained cancelled since then. The liquor baron Vijay Mallya-owned carrier would also have to submit its reply to the Directorate General of Civil Aviation's (DGCA) show-cause notice by October 20. The aviation regulator had served the notice on October 5 asking why its flying license should not be suspended or cancelled due to grounding of its entire fleet and saying it had failed to offer safe, efficient and reliable service. It had given the airline 15 days to reply.
