JNUSU supports airport strike

Staff Reporter

NEW DELHI: Expressing their solidarity with the agitating employees of the Airports Authority of India (AAI), Jawaharlal Nehru University Students' Union (JNUSU) is planning to mobilise student on the campus to join the protesting workers at Delhi airport on Saturday.

In a press statement, JNUSU stated that employees of the AAI were engaged in a "heroic" struggle against the "decision of the United Progressive Alliance Government to privatise the Delhi and Mumbai airports under the garb of modernisation".

Accusing the Government of violating the commitment in the Common Minimum Programme that no profit-making PSU will be privatised, JNUSU said: "The Government has conducted the bidding process in a most non-transparent manner in which the eligibility criteria has been changed arbitrarily raising serious doubts about the legality of the process."

JNUSU vice-president Dhananjay Tripathi participated in the demonstration staged by the workers on Thursday.
