Days after a video showing employees of Air India SATS, the airport gateway services provider for Air India, partying and dancing in an office went viral on social media, four senior employees have been asked to resign. The disciplinary action follows widespread backlash across social media platforms.
The party, which took place at AISATS' Gurugram office, was reportedly held just days after the tragic Air India Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner crash in Ahmedabad that claimed 259 lives.
Reportedly, four senior employees—including SVP Sampreet, SVP Baljinder, the Training Head, and COO Abraham Zacariah—have been asked to resign. The company’s top leadership has also issued a warning to other employees against engaging in such irresponsible conduct in the workplace. AISATS has expressed regret over the incident, stating that the behaviour does not reflect the company’s values.

"At AISATS, we stand in solidarity with families affected by the tragic loss of AI 171 and deeply regret the lapse in judgment reflected in a recent internal video. The behaviour does not align with our values, and firm disciplinary action has been taken against those responsible as we reaffirm our commitment to empathy, professionalism, and accountability," an AISATS spokesperson was quoted saying by NDTV.
