BEIJING: India has taken up with China a complaint filed by an Indian passenger alleging misbehaviour with Indians at the Shanghai Pudong international airport by the staff of a Chinese airline, sources said on Sunday.
The matter has been taken up with the Shanghai foreign affairs office of the Chinese foreign ministry and Pudong airport authorities after it was brought to the notice of external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj, sources told PTI.............................................
Earlier, media reports said that North American Punjabi Association executive director Satnam Singh Chahal wrote to Swaraj alleging that he noticed that at the exit gate of the airplane for wheelchair passengers, ground staff was insulting transit Indian passengers.
Chahal, who travelled on August 6 by China Eastern Airlines flight from New Delhi to San Francisco, had to stop at Shanghai Pudong to catch his next flight of the same airlines for San Francisco. He said when he complained to
concerned Airlines he was shouted down by the official.
