In yet another instance of politicians abusing power, a Shiv Sena MP thrashed an Air India official with his slipper over seating issues.
However, the MP remained defiant over the issue while confessing to having hit the AI employee, saying, “The staffer wasn’t listening to me, so I hit him with my slippers to fix his ego”.
“I don’t have any regrets whatsoever as whatever I did was not wrong ,” he added.
According to an Air India spokesperson, Shiv Sena MP Ravindra Gaikwad hit an Air India staffer with his slipper over the issue of seat of his choice.
