Aurangabad: The Director of the Chikhalthana Airport here was arrested while taking a bribe of Rs 10,000, an official said on Sunday.
According to a complaint, Alok Varshney demanded a bribe of Rs 50,000 and was caught by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) while accepting the first instalment late on Friday.
