LUCKNOW: A scuffle broke out on a Delhi-Lucknow flight mid-air between an Amethi MLA and a passenger over use of cuss words, authorities said on Wednesday.
The incident happened on Tuesday on Air India flight AI-837, when Amethi’s Gauriganj MLA Rakesh Pratap Singh objected to a passenger, Samad Ali, allegedly using foul language while talking on the phone.
According to the MLA, despite objections from fellow travellers, the man continued shouting, forcing him to intervene.
