BJP minority leader and spokesperson Nazia Elahi Khan harassed a Muslim IndiGo ground staff member over a flight delay caused by operational issues, targeting him for his religious identity and saying, “Pura desh tum Abdul aur logon ki wajah se tang hai.” She later made an Islamophobic Facebook post, publicly revealing the names and designations of three Muslim IndiGo ground staff members, accusing them of carrying out a “mini-jihad”, and tagging the Ministry of Civil Aviation and Home Minister Amit Shah.
