Passengers denied entry to Sharjah flight hold protest at Chandigarh airport

The 30 passengers, who were not allowed to board the Sharjah flight on Thursday, held a protest at the Chandigarh International Airport airport on Friday.

The protesters alleged that immigration officials at the airport misbehaved with several passengers and did not let them through, even though they had valid visas and boarding passes.

A passenger, Satnam Singh, said the officials should tender an apology for the inconvenience caused to the passengers and fresh tickets should be provided without any surcharge.

Even after repeated calls and messages, immigration head Sanjeev Kumar did not respond.
