The Union Civil Aviation Ministry may bypass the Public Enterprises Selection Board (PESB) route to fast-track the hiring of director-level executives at Air India.


This necessity has arisen because currently, many director-level positions -- such as Director (Commercial), Director (Personnel) and Director (Operations) -- are open in Air India. The government wants to fill them up as soon as possible using its search-and-selection committee.


On November 14 last year, the central government permitted the ministries to appoint board-level executives in public-sector companies, which are under ministries' administrative control, without taking approval from PESB or Department of Public Enterprises (DPE).
