The curious case of pending nod to a six-year CEO that may delay Noida airport

Puneet Bakshi, an ex-wing commander of the Indian Air Force, said that the appointment of foreign nationals at airports or in the aviation sector goes through a series of clearances. “This is a time-taking process, at least three to four months, as there are extensive protocols that are followed. But it is unlikely that the matter will remain unresolved in six years, unless we have a change in guard—like officers verifying the details moving out or so on,” he said.
