The Union Ministry of Home Affairs has denied the claims that Chief Ministers of Rajasthan and Chattisgarh were denied permission to land at Delhi airport to participate in the G20 Dinner at Leaders’ Summit on September 9.
The MHA went ahead to clarify that ‘no request from Chief Minister of Rajasthan has been denied. While all scheduled flights of commercial Aircrafts and movement of Governors and State Chief Ministers on their State aircrafts are allowed, private chartered flights require specific MHA approval.’
The MHA also cited a news report where Chief Minister Chhattisgarh has expressed his inability to participate in G20 Dinner at Leaders’ Summit at Delhi on 9 Sept 2023 due to air restrictions in and around Delhi.
To this the MHA response was that ‘while a high tech security air cover has been deployed for G20 Leaders’ Summit at Delhi on 8-11 September 2023, movement of Governors and State Chief Ministers on their State aircrafts are allowed’.
