The flight is delayed as of now and we regret the inconvenience caused to other passengers.”
Pawan Khera controversy
Pawan Khera was recently criticised for referring to Narendra Damodardas Modi as Narendra Gautamdas Modi at a press conference on Adani issue.
“Modi government is acting like a bunch of goons by deplaning Pawan Khera from the Delhi-Raipur flight and preventing him from joining the AICC Plenary. Using a flimsy FIR to restrict his movement and silence him is a shameful, unacceptable act. The entire party stands with Pawan ji,” tweeted KC Venugopal, a senior Congress leader.
