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.
