Air India takes dig at IndiGo after manhandling incident at Delhi Airport

Heaping the misery on IndiGo Airlines, Air India took a dig at their competitor after a video that recently surfaced showed IndiGo ground staff manhandling a passenger on the tarmac at the Delhi Airport.

In a video that went public on November 7th, a passenger Rajeev Katiyal is seen getting pinned to the ground and choked by IndiGo ground staff, after an altercation that reportedly originated when airline staff asked the passenger to not stand under the wing of the aircraft.

The tweet from Air India's official account proclaimed emphatically, "Unbeatable", with the 'beat' being highlighted in a different colour.

There were also images doing the rounds on social media, that showed Jet Airways also taking a dig at IndiGo with a similar creative, but that was later proved as unofficial.

Jet Airways released a statement on their official Twitter account stating, "The creative does not reflect our philosophy and ethos and is in fact, in bad taste."

Jet Airways Statement:

Jet Airways did not commission the creative being shared on social media platforms, in context of a recent event concerning another domestic airline.

The creative does not reflect our philosophy and ethos and is in fact, in bad taste.
