CAG raps Civil Aviation Ministry

By The Assam Tribune

NEW DELHI, Sept 8 � The CAG has come down hard on the Civil Aviation Ministry over the decision to acquire 111 planes for Air India through debt, calling it �a recipe for disaster� and also on the merger of the two erstwhile state-run carriers, reports PTI.
