NEW DELHI, Feb 23: Congress leader Pawan Khera was reportedly de-boarded from the IndiGo flight 6E204 en route to Raipur on February 23, said Congress’s social media in-charge Supriya Shrinate.
A delegation was headed from Delhi to Raipur, where the 85th plenary of the party is scheduled to commence on Friday. Supriya Shrinate, Randeep Singh Surjewala and K.C. Venugopal were the other Congress leaders accompanying him.
Mr. Khera said he was asked to de-board the plane for baggage reasons. “I don’t know why I have been de-planed. I was told that they need to check my baggage, I told them that I only have a handbag, but they still insisted that I leave the plane,” he said. “I have now been told that the DCP will meet me on tarmac.”
Scenes of chaos unfolded on the tarmac at the New Delhi airport, where the members got down and raised slogans against the BJP government. In a video shared by Congress, the members can be heard saying, “ BJP hai hai” and “ Yeh tanashahi nahi chalegi” (this dictatorial attitude is unfair).
Mr. Khera during a presser recently took a jibe at the BJP government’s alleged support for Gautam Adani and the inaction over the Hindenburg report. While addressing a presser, the Congress spokesperson referred to Prime Minister Narendra Damodardas Modi as “Narendra Gautamdas Modi”. (Agencies)
