when i saw this news about Kalam frisked by American airlines at IGI airport one thing that came into my mind is.. forget about the Ex-President, what will america say if the same situation happens to their minister Hillary Clinton who is in India now? Those stupids made kalam to remove his shoe and made him to go through the scanner in the name of security check up. These Idiots doesn't even know that general security rules are not applicable for High Rank People (or) are they trying to act over smart? bloody fools.. My blood is boiling.. read the news here..
In a breach of protocol, India's former President A P J Abdul Kalam, who is exempted from security checks, was frisked by staff of an American airliner at the international airport here before boarding the aircraft.
The Civil Aviation Ministry has ordered a probe into the incident involving the ground security staff of Continental Airlines which subjected Kalam to security check before he was to board a Newark-bound flight on April 24. "The incident took place on April 24 at the Indira Gandhi international airport when Kalam was travelling to the US. He was treated like an ordinary passenger," sources close to Kalam told PTI.
They said Kalam did not take up the issue with the government. "It is the airline policy to check everyone. They never listen to any Indian agency," they said.
