 A section of Alliance Air pilots, who were on strike for the last two days, resumed work on Wednesday, according to a senior airline official.

On Monday and Tuesday, around 70-80 pilots went on strike to protest against non-restoration of salaries to the pre-COVID level and non-payment of allowances, among other issues.

Alliance Air CEO Vineet Sood informed that pilots have come back to work.

He also said that negotiations are going on with the pilots regarding the issues raised by them.  On Tuesday, sources said the airline has issued notices to the striking pilots and has also asked them to join back for duty.

State-owned Alliance Air, which was earlier part of the now-privatised Air India, has around 200 pilots and operates about 130 flights per day.

A source had said that at least 70 flights were affected due to the strike by the pilots on Tuesday
