Indias Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia met CEOs of Indias airline sector on Thursday.
Accordingly, this was the first official meeting between Scindia and the industry's top executive after he took charge of the crucial ministry last week.
The meet comes at a time when the sector is reeling under massive financial strain caused due to Covid resurgence.
Besides, the sector, has come under a fare price band and its operational capacity deployment has been restricted.
The contact intensive service sector has been heavily battered by the pandemic which has driven away passengers.
