A day after it was reported that BJP MP Tejasvi Surya had opened the emergency exit door of an Indigo flight before takeoff in December, Union Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia said the incident happened by “mistake” and that Surya had “apologised” for the same.
“The person concerned, Tejasvi Surya himself reported to the crew and the pilot following which all the protocols were followed and only then was the aircraft allowed to take off,” Scindia was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.
