Kerala opposition leader V.D. Satheesan has defended the use of a chartered aircraft, according to NDTV. The supplied material does not include Satheesan’s full explanation or specify the journey, cost or purpose of the aircraft.
It also does not identify the criticism to which his remarks responded. Separately, the source says a three-year helicopter contract had expired. The chief minister said the government had decided not to extend it.
The available information does not state whether the chartered aircraft was connected to the helicopter contract, who used it or when the flight took place. It also gives no details about the contract’s value, its original purpose or the reasons for ending it. The report therefore records Satheesan’s defence and the chief minister’s statement that the helicopter arrangement would not be renewed, without supplying further context about either issue.
