Air India on Tuesday cancelled Shiv Sena MP Ravindra Gaikwad’s ticket for the second time after he was barred by the airline for allegedly assaulting their staffer.

Gaikwad's Mumbai-Delhi ticket was cancelled for hitting AI staffer R Sukumar several times with his slippers over seating issue.

The tussle broke out after he was denied business class on a Pune-New Delhi on March 23.

The Sena leader was banned by AI and other top airlines with ‘immediate effect’ on March 24 and he boarded a train to Mumbai later in the evening.

Defiant Gaikwad refused to offer any apologies to the victim.

 “Kaahe ka pashchaataap (what is there to repent)? I will not apologise. He (Sukumar) should come and apologise. Then we will see. A 60-year-old man should know how to behave,” Gaikwad had said.
