NEW DELHI: Senior IAS officer Vikram Dev Dutt has been appointed chairman and MD of Air India, days before the Tata Group takes over the airline.
Union aviation secretary Rajiv Bansal, who was appointed AI CMD in August 2017, was holding additional charge of the airline after being elevated in last September.
Now Dutt, an IAS officer of AGMUT 1993 batch, is all set to be the last government-appointed AI CMD before the airline goes back to the Tatas.
Before being elevated as AI CMD, Dutt was serving as principal secretary in Delhi government’s health and family welfare and later in the services department.
