Pilots allegedly called Air India CMD Arvind Jadhav a f''''', tried to grab his neck at Monday meet in New Delhi, ensuring standoff continues
On Monday afternoon, a group of Air India pilots, led by Captain V K Bhalla and Captain Anuj Basu, met the company's CMD, Arvind Jadhav, to break the deadlock on the agitation, which began on Saturday.
But the meeting was disrupted as pilots hurled abuses at Jadhav.
A member of the Indian Commercial Pilots Association said that two hours into the meeting, Captains Bhalla and Basu started abusing Jadhav repeatedly saying he was a f'''''.

That's when an angry Jadhav stormed out of the room. A few pilots followed him and after 45 minutes, managed to convince him to come back and resume the meeting.

"Everything went haywire after Captain Bhalla and his colleagues used abusive language against Jadhav," said the pilot.
