Kochi
Centre has informed the Kerala High Court that BrahMos Aerospace Thiruvananthapuram Ltd (BATL) is a public limited company and wholly owned subsidiary of BrahMos Aerospace Private Limited, an Indo-Russin JV.
A JV between Indian and Russian governments cannot be a government company fully controlled in India by the Ministry of Defence, it was stated in an affidavit by Assistant Solicitor General of India P Rarameswaran Nair.This is a first-of-its-kind cooperation any where in the world between two countries to develop ballistic missiles and the project is a reflection of the warm and cordial defence ties between India and Russia, it was stated.
The submission was made following a direction to the Centre last week to clarify whether BATL is a private or government company on a petition by INTUC affiliated Brahmos Staff Association and CITU affiliated Brahmos Employees Union challenging a state government notification exempting the company from the provisions of Kerala Recognition of Trade Union Act, 2010, came up before the Court.
