Hundreds of striking pilots of India’s national carrier have ended a 58 day strike after a court told them to return to work within two days. The Indian Pilots’ Guild which represents Air India’s striking pilots said late Tuesday they would follow the instructions of the Delhi High Court. About a third of the airline’s 1,500 pilots were on strike. Their absence led to dozens of canceled flights for the beleaguered carrier. The court order said Air India should be sympathetic to the pilots’ grievances. The pilots were protesting unpaid salaries and what they said was a lack of opportunities to train on Boeing 787 Dreamliner jets that the airline has ordered. It was not immediately clear if the airline would reinstate 100 pilots fired during the strike.
