Introduction

Additionally, the process was opposed by the Airports Authority Joint Employees Forum6 (AAJEF).

To protest against airport privatization, they went on a strike which lasted four days from February 1, 2006.

The Left parties7 did not support the GoI on the issue and joined hands with the AAJEF. To make matters worse, Reliance chose to take legal action against the government. All these events have dimmed the prospects of privatization of the Mumbai and Delhi airports.

Brief History of the Aviation Industry in India

As of 2006, India had a total of 11 international airports, 89 domestic airports and 26 civil enclaves at defense airfields. India also had four international cargo terminals at Delhi, Chennai, Kolkata, and Mumbai which, together, were capable of handling one million tons of import/export/transit cargo annually.

All of these were being managed by the Airports Authority of India (AAI). AAI was formed after the GoI merged the International Airports Authority of India (IAAI)8 and the National Airports Authority (NAA)9 on April 01, 1995.

All of India's airspace (excluding the special user airspace10) extending further than the territorial limits of the country, as acknowledged by International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO),11 was controlled and managed by AAI. AAI provided Air Traffic Management Services over Indian air space and adjoining oceanic areas to assure the safety and security of all aircraft operations.
