Overview
- Moitra, who posted a video Thursday, said a group of men on IndiGo flight 6E 719 shouted “Jai Shri Ram” and “chor chor” and filmed her before the doors opened.
- She said she sat in seat 1F on the Kolkata–Delhi flight and that four to six men boarded together, leered at her, and moved to the back of the plane.
- She asked IndiGo to pull the crew report to identify the men and tagged the civil aviation minister seeking a no-fly ban, adding that she will file a complaint after the airline asked for one.
- IndiGo and the Ministry of Civil Aviation had not issued a public response by Thursday evening, and no investigation or sanctions had been announced.
- The episode follows the BJP’s victory in West Bengal’s assembly elections, and any no-fly decision would go to an airline panel led by a retired judge that can bar unruly passengers for set periods.
