CISF officers issued apology: Kanimozhi after being questioned on nationality at airport

Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) leader and Member of Parliament Kanimozhi on August 09 took to her twitter handle and shared a recent unpleasant experience at the airport after security official allegedly asked her if she was Indian over her language preferances.

While speaking to ANI, she said that CISF officers met her and issued apology.

"Just because you don't belong to one religion or don't speak a particular language doesn't make you less of an Indian.

I think the greatness of this country is the acceptance of its diversity and inclusiveness.

Somewhere we are losing that.

When I landed here officers met me and they apologised about what happened.

They have promised to start an inquiry and take action.

I thank them for that," said Kanimozhi.
