Shiv Sena's Sanjay Raut addresses the media on MP Rajendra Gaikwad's fly ban. The press conference comes after Gaikwad's statement in parliament today where he apologised to MPs, but said he was provoked to act.

Raut sets a deadline of April 10 for the government to ensure that Air India and other airlines withdraw their fly ban against Gaikwad. "10 April tak agar masle ka hal nahi nikla to Shiv Sena NDA ki meeting me nahi jaayegi. If the matter is not resolved by April 10, the Shiv Sena will not participate in NDA meetings," Raut said.

He also said the statements were being made on behalf of Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray.

Raut also questioned Air India's no fly ban saying criminals, rapists and separatists were allowed to fly, so why was Gaikwad being targetted.

"What is Air India? Who does the CMD think he is? HM ne kaha hum pure mamle ko dekhenge. We respect Rajnath Singh, he is our elder. He will resolve the matter," Raut said.

Parliament was disrupted over the twin issues of the Alwar lynching and Gaikwad's fly ban. Congress and Shiv Sena, armed with adjournment notices cornered the government.

Shiv Sena members created a ruckus in Parliament demanding the removal of the flying ban against its Osmanabad MP.

Shiv Sena MP Anandrao Adsul gave the adjournment notice stating that decision taken by Air India and other private airlines is a violation of fundamental rights.
