Vijay Mallya Feels Sorry For Jet Airways:- Liqour baron Vijay Mallya who went missing from India owes Rs 9000 crores to Indian banks. After Jet Airways has been struggling to stand, he supported the top airline reminding about how Kingfisher tumbled down. Now he once again staged attack through twitter.
"Even though Jet was a major competitor to Kingfisher at the time I feel sorry to see such a large private airline on the brink of failure when Government used 35K crores of public funds to bail out Air India. Just being a PSU is no excuse for discrimination. I invested hugely into Kingfisher which rapidly grew to become India’s largest and most awarded airline. True, Kingfisher borrowed from PSU Banks as well. I have offered to pay back 100 percent but am being criminally charged instead. Airline Karma?".

"Every time I say that I am willing to pay 100 percent back to the PSU Banks, media say I am spooked, terrified etc of extradition from the UK to India. I am willing to pay either way whether I am in London or in an Indian Jail. Why don’t Banks take the money I offered first? Even though we were fierce competitors, my sympathies go out to Naresh and Neeta Goyal who built Jet Airways that India should be extremely proud of. Fine Airline providing vital connectivity and class service. Sad that so many Airlines have bitten the dust in India. Why?" said Vijay Mallya.
