The stand-up comedian Kunal Kamra was suspended from flying on the airline on Tuesday after he allegedly heckled journalist Arnab Goswami on a flight from Mumbai to Lucknow. This debate is not about Arnab’s journalism at all. This is about safety in public spaces and sanitized spaces like commercial aircrafts. Arnab’s journalism has nothing to do with this.
After IndiGo and Air India, SpiceJet, GoAir ban Kunal Kamra from flying until 'further notice' for 'heckling' Arnab Goswami.
However many netizens are asking why Sadhvi Pragya was not banned for her unruly behavior.
Minister Harshdeep Puri stated in his tweet that , Offensive behaviour designed to provoke & create disturbance inside an aircraft is absolutely unacceptable & endangers safety of air travellers. We are left with no option but to advise other airlines to impose similar restrictions on the person concerned.
Indigo in a tweet said , In light of the recent incident on board 6E 5317 from Mumbai to Lucknow, we wish to inform that we are suspending Mr. Kunal Kamra from flying with IndiGo for a period of six months, as his conduct onboard was unacceptable behaviour.
