Taking a tough line against the striking 'Indian' employees, Government even warned them of a lockout in Indian Airlines.At the Delhi airport Indian snapped into damage control mode refunding passenger tickets to control the chaos. But passengers stranded at the airport since morning were not amused."A lot of inconvenience has been caused to the passengers, which will not be tolerated.
