Technical trouble grounded an Air India plane and forced another to make a priority landing in New Delhi on Wednesday, prompting a pilots' union to warn that its members would henceforth operate only a completely snag-free aircraft.
Air India said it has also written to the Shiv Sena communicating the decision to cancel the ticket. Shiv Sena Secretary Anil Desai said that he has asked Gaikwad to change his travel plans as the party doesn't want the tensions to escalate.
