A sting operation conducted by Republic TV exposed that Civil Aviation Minister Ashok Gajapathi Raju has lied while speaking on the ruckus created by TDP MP JC Diwakar Reddy in Visakha Airport.
On Camera, JC Diwakar Reddy told Ashok Gajapathi Raju was in Visakha airport when the incident happened and he himself had directed Airport Manager to issue him the boarding pass. JC claimed he travelled in the same Hyderabad-bound IndoGo Airlines plane for which he was denied boarding pass on that day.
Whereas, Ashok Gajapathi Raju had in the past told he is no way connected to the incident at the Visakha airport.
JC admitted that he got emotional after IndiGo Airlines denied him the boarding pass as he was in a hurry on that day. He claims to have behaved in such a manner in the heat of the moment. The MP, however, refused to apologise saying even the Airlines Staff was at fault.
