A Cabinet minister in the Modi government was going overseas and as a matter of habit, he bought himself a business class ticket from Air India and asked the national aviation company to upgrade it to first class. But when the matter came to be known by Modi, he got in touch with the minister and told him, “This tradition of upgradation has to stop, and it costs Air India crores of rupees every year. If you are so keen on flying first class, you should kindly purchase a first class ticket.”
