Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has lashed out at the Delhi airport authorities after his national capital bound Indigo flight from Srinagar was diverted to Jaipur on Saturday night.

"Delhi airport is a bloody shit show (excuse my French but I’m in no mood to be polite). 3 hours in the air after we left Jammu we get diverted to Jaipur & so here I am at 1 in the morning on the steps of the plane getting some fresh air. I’ve no idea what time we will leave from here," he posted on X.

He made the remarks sharing a selfie in front of the aircraft. Almost three hours later, Abdullah in another post said, "In case anyone is wondering, I got to Delhi just after 3:00 AM".
