Watch: Rahul Gandhi's plane develops 'unexplained' technical snag, party suspects sabotage
Rahul Gandhi's office has written a letter to Karnataka DGP hinting at sabotage after his flight developed a technical snag during campaigning for the elections, Times Now reported.

The letter was written by Rahul Gandhi's close aide Kaushal Vidyarthee who said that the special plane with four people on board developed "unexplained technical failure" during the flight.

The letter states that the flight, in which Rahul Gandhi was travelling from Delhi to Hubli in Karnataka, tilted heavily to its left before landing and started losing altitude.


“...the aircraft suddenly tilted heavily on the left side and the altitude dropped steeply, combined with violent shuddering of the aircraft body...” Gandhi’s office wrote in the complaint letter. There was a clanking noise and the autopilot too wasn’t working properly, according to the letter. “Serious questions related to intentional tampering with the aircraft cannot also be brushed aside and are required to be addressed and investigated,” the letter added.



The Prime Minister's Office has contacted Rahul Gandhi over the issue of his flight developing a technical snag, according to Times Now.
