After Air India, 4 Other Airlines Ban Shiv Sena MP From Flying

After Air India and the Federation of Indian Airlines (FIA) - which has Jet Airways, IndiGo, SpiceJet and GoAir as its members - banned Shiv Sena MP Ravindra Gaikwad from flying, IndiGo on Friday cancelled his ticket for the Delhi-Pune flight which he had booked for the day.

The budget carrier said it will support any move which bars unruly passengers from flying, a day after Air India said it was mulling preparing a no-fly list for such people in the wake of the Shiv Sena MP assaulting its employee.

"We will support a no-fly list," IndiGo President and Whole Time Director Aditya Ghosh said.

Shiv



Sena MP Ravindra Gaikwad has submitted a complaint against Air India. He approached the Delhi Police on Friday alleging that he was pushed and yelled at.

In his complaint, the MP also alleged that he was made to travel in economy class by Air India even though he had a business class ticket.

There is heavy police presence outside the airport as Gaikwad is expected to reach there to board his flight, according to Hindustan Times.
