Anita Goyal’s Role at Jet Airways
Anita Goyal’s journey with Jet Airways was marked by her deep involvement in the day-to-day and strategic operations of the airline. Initially serving as the executive vice president, Anita was a driving force behind the scenes, shaping the carrier’s policies and initiatives. In 2015, she transitioned to the role of non-executive vice president, continuing her involvement with the airline at a high level. Even in this capacity, she remained an active member of the board of directors, influencing major decisions and contributing to the airline’s legacy in the Indian aviation sector.
Legal Challenges for the Goyal Family
The passing of Anita Goyal occurs amidst turbulent times for the Goyal family, particularly for Naresh Goyal, the founder of Jet Airways. Last week, the Bombay High Court granted Naresh Goyal interim bail on medical grounds for two months. This bail comes in the wake of his arrest by the Enforcement Directorate in a case related to allegations of money laundering. The legal woes faced by Naresh Goyal add a layer of complexity to the family’s current circumstances, juxtaposing personal loss with ongoing legal battles.
