New Delhi: Senior Congress leader Pawan Khera was arrested on Thursday by the Assam Police from the Delhi airport after he was forced to exit an IndiGo flight.
Reportedly, an FIR was lodged against him for his comments on Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Khera was earlier deboarded from an IndiGo flight to Raipur, where he was heading for the AICC plenary session, scheduled to begin on Friday.
Notably, Khera flubbed PM Modi’s name while demanding a joint parliamentary probe into the Adani-Hindenburg row.
“If Narasimha Rao could form a JPC (Joint Parliamentary Committee), if Atal Bihari Vajpayee could form a JPC, then what problem does Narendra Gautam Das…sorry Damodardas…Modi have?” he said, appearing to confirm the middle name with a colleague.
