Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Subramanian Swamy on Friday moved an
application in the Delhi High Court seeking direction to the Centre to
stay an AirAsia India plea seeking permission to fly internationally.
Swamy
told the court that various media reports are saying that AirAsia India
wants to begin operations to Southeast Asian destinations and has
sought licence from the union government to fly international.
A bench of Chief Justice Rajendra Menon and V. Kameswar Rao listed the matter for further hearing on March 29.
Please issue order staying the grant of permission/licence permitting Air India to fly internationally, Swamy pleaded.
The
court was hearing a plea seeking quashing of the approval granted to
Malaysia-based AirAsia to start flight operations in India.
