Darpan News Desk IANS, 01 Jan, 2019 10:17 PM

    Bharatiya Janata Party leader Shatrughan Sinha will no longer be treated as a 'VIP' at Patna airport, said a senior official on Monday.


    Rajendra Singh Lahauriya, director at Jay Prakash Narayan Airport, said that Mr Sinha who was earlier exempted from security checks and regular frisking, will no longer have the privilege.


    The former union minister was earlier allowed to bring his vehicle to the tarmac and was also exempted from security frisking.


    "The facilities were extended to Mr Sinha for a period which ended in June this year. No orders have been received for extending it," said Mr Lauhariya.
