Protesting seers here compelled officials of the Spicejet airline to sack errant workers and apologise for their misconduct.
Varanasi, Jan 23 : Protesting seers here compelled officials of the Spicejet airline to sack errant workers and apologise for their misconduct.
The issue reportedly surfaced on Monday when a prominent seer, Avimukteshwaranand of Vidya Mutt, protested against the lewd comments passed on a teenage girl by some Spicejet employees.
Errant workers jeered the sage when he protested against their behavior. This enraged his followers who gathered at the Babatpur Airport here on Tuesday and raised slogans.
The protestors were pacified only after the Spicejet sacked the four accused and tendered an official apology.
"We have already suspended those who were involved in the misconduct. The seer has forgiven us," said Nalin Srivastava, Station Manager, Spicejet.
"I am happy that the Spicejet people have realised their mistake and they have sacked the four employees and apologized in writing. They have also promised to keep the pride of Varanasi and the honour of females," said Avimukteshwaranand.
