No decision on AirAsia before Dec 11: Centre to HC

The senior law officer was answering to a courts query as to what is the governments stand on Swamys plea seeking a stay on the deal.

Raising objection to the maintainability of the plea,Parasaran said a PIL cannot be maintained on such issue like AirAsia as the policy does not affect general public.

Referring to the governments affidavit,the bench said no final decision has been taken on the approval of the deal. However,Swamy argued that the government has made a relaxation in the FDI policy because of the cash strapped in aviation sector,and informed the bench the Centre is scheduled to decide on the AirAsia deal on December 11.
