Unexpected Journey: A Road Trip for Deputy CM Pathak

Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak was compelled to alter his travel plans, opting for a road journey to Lucknow after his chartered plane encountered technical issues. The incident unfolded during his return from an official visit to Moradabad.

Anurag Singh, who manages the communication department's check post at the Moradabad airport, provided details about the situation to reporters. Singh explained that the pilot notified them about the technical problem, prompting the Deputy Chief Minister's road trip.
