The Madras High Court has granted permission to Paramount Airways to re-commence operations, however, the airline has not responded further, the Minister for Civil Aviation, Mr Ajit Singh, told Parliament.
In a written reply to Parliament, the Minister said the only Scheduled Operator's permit which was suspended during the last three years was that of Paramount, which was placed under suspension from April 19, 2010, because they did not pay the lease rental and their lease was terminated by the lessor resulting in de-registration of their aircraft.
“However, due to injunction order passed by Madras High Court, it was revoked on April 30, 2010, but again placed under suspension after disposal of the writ petition by the single bench of Madras High Court.
“However, the orders were again kept under abeyance according to the order of October 22, 2010 received from the Division Bench of the High Court of Madras, in which the Court also directed the Airline not to commence flying unless permitted by the Court,” the Minister said.
