Delhi Police stop Pawan Khera from boarding Raipur flight

Congress party members protests at the IGI airport in Delhi against deplaning of senior leader Pawan Khera on Thursday

New Delhi: The Delhi Police on Thursday stopped Congress media chairman Pawan Khera from boarding an Indigo flight to Raipur where the party plenary will take place from Friday.

आज इंडिगो की फ्लाइट 6E-204 से कांग्रेस के वरिष्ठ नेता दिल्ली से रायपुर जा रहे थे।

सभी फ्लाइट में बैठ चुके थे, उसी वक्त हमारे नेता @Pawankhera जी को फ्लाइट से उतरने को कहा गया।

ये तानाशाही रवैया है।

तानाशाह ने अधिवेशन से पहले ED के छापे मरवाए और अब इस तरह की हरकत पर उतर आया। pic.twitter.com/WJTkivIHWa

In view of the development, Congress leaders and workers started sloganeering outside the IGI Airport in the national capital.

The Congress has alleged that this was an attempt to disrupt the plenary similar to the were ED raids in Chhattisgarh on Monday.
