DHAKA, Dec 22: Pilots of Biman Bangladesh Airlines started a ‘limited strike’ on Monday, forcing cancellation of an international and two domestic flights, and rescheduling of eight others.
The government has warned of stern action against the strikers terming their demands “illogical”.
“I will go for stern action against them,” State Minister for Civil Aviation Mir Mohammad Nasiruddin said. “If necessary the Biman flights will remain grounded for a week,” he added.
Briefing newsmen on Monday, he termed the demands of the pilots illogical.
A Kolkata-bound flight was cancelled while flights scheduled for Dubai and New York were delayed by several hours.
