New Delhi, July 19: The IndiGo airlines banned CPI(M) central committee member EP Jayarajan over his scuffle with two Youth Congress workers who staged a protest against chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan inside a flight last month.
EP Jayarajan has been banned from traveling on international as well as domestic flights of IndiGo for three weeks, while the Congress workers have been barred for 2 weeks from using the service of the airlines.
However, Jayarajan stated that he hasn’t received any information on the flight ban.
The incident occurred on June 13 when three Youth Congress workers boarded the IndiGo 6E flight from Kannur to Thiruvananthapuram. After the flight landed, they raised slogans against CM Vijayan who was on board, demanding his resignation over the allegations raised by the gold smuggling case accused Swapna Suresh.
Enraged by the protest, Jayarajan allegedly pushed the two leaders, causing chaos at the Thiruvananthapuram airport. The two protestors were soon taken to police custody and later remanded by a local court. They were charged with an attempt to murder among other sections of IPC and Aviation laws.
