On June 25, four men associated with low-cost airline SpiceJet came by Rajiv Gandhi Bhawan, which houses the aviation ministry, in central Delhi for a closed meeting with the new minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju Pusapati.
The group had the ceremony of a high-level delegation, but would wait for nearly an hour because the minister was being interviewed — rather profusely — by a television journalist.
Three members of the group, senior executives of SpiceJet, settled on a beige sofa in a cramped room and killed time by attending to their phones. Their easy mien showed they were used to waiting at the ministry.
The fourth, SL Narayanan, chief financial officer of SpiceJet's parent company, Sun Group, the media conglomerate based in Chennai, clearly wasn't. He seemed antsy, occasionally throwing a glance at his watch.
