AI to gain most if govt clears funds to Home Ministry

Air India (AI) will be a major beneficiary of the increase in funds for the Union Home Ministry once Parliament clears the supplementary demands for grants.

The Finance Ministry has earmarked Rs 100 crore for the Home Ministry to clear “pending claims from Air India for operating and maintaining” prime minister's aircraft.

AI operates Boeing-747 planes as Air India One whenever the prime minister goes abroad. There are pending bills with regard to the use of Air India planes for VVIPs.
