Synopsis

India’s civil aviation sector saw a lot of turbulence during the pandemic. Two years in and the sector has managed to recover slightly. All of 18 months into his position, India’s civil aviation minister Jyotiraditya Scindia has a lot on his plate. From airfare queries, to privatisation timelines, to Tata-Air India’s one year, Scindia spoke at length with ET Prime.

Late Madhavrao Scindia, who became the aviation minister in 1991 at 46, was a votary of service brands like airlines functioning under private expertise instead of being led by bureaucrats. Which is why perhaps in informal conversation, he used to often express his displeasure at Jet Airways promoter Naresh Goyal lobbying against the entry of Tatas with Singapore Airlines in Indian aviation during the 1990s, according to a person who knew him
