Minister of State for Home Affairs Kiren Rijiju, who had last week gone to Leh by a Border Security Force (BSF) helicopter to attend the Sindhu Darshan function, reportedly delayed an Air India flight and made three passengers de-board the flight.
Rijiju was accompanied by Jammu and Kashmir Deputy Chief Minister Nirmal Singh and they were to fly to Delhi from Leh on June 24, when the reported incident took place.
However, the Minister has denied all the allegations and said he was not aware that three passengers were de-boarded.
According to reports, the helicopter could not take off due to bad weather and last-minute-arrangements were made to fly Rijiju and the Deputy CM by Air India flight AI 446.
