A post about a passenger’s baggage being allegedly damaged while flying with IndiGo Airlines has gone viral on social media. The video, posted on X by a user named Shravan Singh Rajpurohit, shows the confrontation between a ground staff member of the airline and the passenger (who remains behind the camera). The staff member is heard telling the latter, “You can’t take my video.” He is seen walking back behind the counter, but the passenger continues filming. He wonders aloud what’s to be done now about his damaged luggage. He moves the camera towards his baggage trolleys and zooms in on a suitcase, a backpack and a tote bag (with one broken handle strap).
He moves the camera back towards the staff member and challenges him to call the police. In the caption of the post, the X user stated that he was travelling from Delhi to Bengaluru via MAA (Chennai International Airport) when his luggage was damaged.
