Indian hockey team goalkeeper PR Sreejesh has slammed airline IndiGo. Sreejesh has fiercely criticized the airline in a tweet on Friday. Sreejesh had to pay some extra amount to carry his luggage, due to which he got angry and lodged his complaint through Twitter.
According to the report, Sreejesh was going from Bangalore to Kochi on Indigo flight 6E 382. During this flight, the airline took some extra money by taking his hockey luggage. Its photo has been tweeted by Sreejesh. According to the rules of the airline, Sreejesh’s hockey baggage was more than his fixed standards, due to which the Indian goalkeeper had to pay an extra amount.
‘what do i do’
Sreejesh tweeted in this regard, writing, “FIH allows me to play with a 41 inch hockey stick, but Indigo does not allow me to carry anything more than 38 inches. what to do I paid an extra Rs 1500 for the goalkeeper’s bag.”
Sreejesh has posted the slip of the additional amount given on Twitter and has written this post.
FIH allow me to play with a 41inch hockeystick, but @IndiGo6E never allow me to carry anything over 38inch.
What to do? Pay extra Rs,1500 for handling the goalkeeper baggage.#loot pic.twitter.com/lJWFkAlgfT— sreejesh pr (@16Sreejesh) September 23, 2022
mixed reaction
As soon as Sreejesh tweeted this photo, there was a mixed reaction on his post. Someone criticized the airline and said that this should not happen to this great player, then someone said that the rules are equal for everyone. Sreejesh was in Team India’s camp in Bangalore. Sreejesh is counted among the greatest goalkeepers in the world. He has been part of the team that won an Olympic medal after four decades. India had won a bronze medal in the Tokyo Olympics last year. The Indian team now has to play FIH Pro Hockey League matches at the end of October. These matches will be played in Odisha. For this, Team India is participating in the practice session in Bangalore.
Pathetic rigid rules without being practical or having basic ideas about the sports.
