'Grounded' MP Ravindra Gaikwad in Parliament; Shiv Sena gives adjournment notice in Lok Sabha

New Delhi: Shiv Sena MP Ravindra Gaikwad, who has been barred by all Indian airlines from flying on their aircraft, on Thursday reached Parliament to attend the proceedings in Lok Sabha.

The adamant Sena has backed its leader and moved an adjournment notice in the Lower House on Gaikwad issue.

Sena MP Anandrao Adsul accused the BJP-led government of taking no action on the issue.

Earlier, Adsul had threatened to create a ruckus if the issue of a flying ban on party MP Ravindra Gaikwad is not addressed by the government.

Lok Sabha member from Osmanabad in Maharashtra, 57-year-old Gaikwad had abused and assaulted a 60-year-old duty manager of Ait India with slippers over not being able to fly business class despite having boarded an all-economy Pune-New Delhi flight.

Following the incident, Air India and major domestic airlines have barred the 57-year-old MP from flying as he refused to apologise for the incident that triggered nationwide outrage.

The Sena MP has remained defiant and refused to apologise for repeatedly beating and trying to push down Sukumar from the aircraft. He also dared Delhi Police to arrest him and alleged that it was AI official Sukumar who hit him first.

Besides Air India, the airlines which won't allow Gaikwad to fly as FIA members are IndiGo, Jet Airways, SpiceJet and Go Air. AirAsia and Vistara, which are not with FIA, have also joined them.
