After wrapping up her visit to Uttar Pradesh, the CM returned to Kolkata on March 4.
Even though the airport authorities blamed adverse weather, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) is examining the event.
West Bengal Home Secretary BP Gopalika wrote to the DGCA on Saturday, inquiring as to why the Chief Minister’s aeroplane experienced “severe turbulence” soon before landing at the Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose International Airport.
In an editorial, TMC outlet Jago Bangla raised alarm, stating that the flights transporting West Bengal Chief Minister have often encountered problems.
