New Delhi: Chaos ensued at IGI on Tuesday after Union minister of trade and commerce Anand Sharma reportedly arrived late and was not permitted to board the aircraft.
According to airport officials, Sharma was headed to Goa on Spicejet 257, which departs around 5.30pm. But by the time he got to the airport, the doors of the aircraft had been closed. He tried hard to gain entry into the aircraft and even entered into an argument with airline staff at the terminal.
Sharma then was forced to wait at the airport for a few hours before he left for Mumbai on IC 810 around 8pm.
