New Delhi, May 06: RJD leader Laloo Prasad Yadav is too young to undertake pilgrimage to Kedarnath. "Pilgrimage is meant for those on the verge of retirement," Yadav quipped in the Rajya Sabha today when the house was disposing of a question on starting a helicopter service to Kedarnath dham.

When the RJD leader asked Civil Aviation Minister Syed Shahnawaz Hussain whether he had taken into consideration the safety aspects of the chopper service, the minister promised him that he would be on the inaugural flight. Earlier, Hussain said the state-owned Pawan Hans Helicopter limited has plans to operate, on an experimental basis, a five-seater bell helicopter from Augustmuni to Kedarnath from mid-May till June-end.
