By Anagha: Election officers checked state Congress chief DK Shivakumar’s private chopper at Dharamsthala in Belthangady town of Dakshina Kannada District in Karnataka. On board the chopper were DK Shivakumar’s wife Usha, son and daughter.
An argument broke out between election officers and chopper crew after they arrived to conduct a routine check. Resisting the check, the pilot said that it was a private helicopter and no checking would be allowed.
