On Friday the DGCA pulled up the IndiGo carrier over a chaos that erupted on the flight when some mediapersons violated government-mandated Covid protocols, in a bid to record actress’ statement on the massive slugfest between her and the Maharashtra government.

Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) sought a report from IndiGo Airlines over the alleged violations of safety & social distancing protocols. It has directed IndiGo to take action against the passengers responsible for unruly behaviour and protocol violations

IndiGo’s statement:

“We have given our statement to DGCA. Our cabin crew, as well as the captain, followed all the requisite protocols, including announcements to restrict photography, follow social distancing and maintain overall safety,” IndiGo said in a statement.

"We would like to reiterate that our cabin crew, as well as the captain, followed all the requisite protocols, including announcements to restrict photography, follow social distancing and maintain overall safety. IndiGo also followed the requisite protocol of documenting this matter in its post-flight report," the airline said in a statement.

IndiGo added: "We are in receipt of certain directions from the DGCA in relation to flight 6E 264. We will follow the prescribed guidelines."

Several video clips have surfaced on the social media which show mediapersons trying to cover actress’ response after the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) demolished "illegal" constructions at her office in Mumbai's Pali Hill area.
