Another user said, “Considering the security threat, this person should be banned for lifetime. Investigation should be conducted how he could able to carry lighter and cigarettes on runway..” A user commented, “Why is he allowed to leave? Why not arrested for violating DGCA guidelines? Why CRPF didn’t take any action? He was smoking while walking upto aircraft. How did he clear security check with lighter? Matchstick?”
Another user said, “People like this just don’t seem to understand basic civic sense. When an employee is clearly telling them that smoking isn’t allowed here, instead of cooperating, they start threatening the staff this is completely unacceptable.

Whether all these security personal involved with this person? Why not arrest him?”
