Air India Chairman N. Chandrasekaran is setting up an interim committee of senior executives, including himself, to oversee the airline during the search for a successor to CEO Campbell Wilson, according to a person with direct knowledge of the matter.
The committee will also include former top civil aviation ministry official Pradeep Singh Kharola. The panel's goal, in part, is to ensure continuity at Air India while Chandrasekaran's extension as chairman of Tata Sons is pending, the person said.
