Shiv Sena MP Ravindra Gaikwad, who is no longer allowed to fly, will be reaching Delhi by train on Wednesday to attend the ongoing parliament session and also to attend a meeting at the civil aviation ministry on him being grounded.
 
Gaikwad took the Rajdhani after Air India foiled two attempts by him to book flights to Delhi with the airline for Wednesday, reported Hindustan Times
 
Delhi Police has already filed FIR against Gaikwad for assaulting an Air India staffer at IGI Airport. The MP was angry as he had not been given a business seat, though the aircraft only had economy seats. He assaulted an AI staffer and the incident was caught on camera.
 
 
The MP is not new to controversies. His poll affidavit shows that he has eight criminal cases against him, including one for culpable homicide. The latest incident is the ninth case. He has been booked for multiple charges of culpable homicide not amounting to murder, criminal intimidation, rioting, unlawful assembly, voluntarily causing hurt, endangering life, wrongful restraint and being armed with deadly weapons.
