She said in her tweet that she was humiliated during a security check by being asked to remove her shirt and stand wearing a camisole in the airport gathering unwanted attention.
She tweeted, “I was asked to remove my shirt at Bengaluru airport during security check. It was really humiliating to stand there at the security checkpoint wearing just a camisole and getting the kind of attention you’d never want as a woman. @BLRAirport Why would you need a woman to strip?”
In reply, the Bangalore Airport tweeted “Hello @KrishaniGadhvi, we deeply regret the hassle caused and this should not have happened. We have highlighted this to our operations team and also escalated it to the security team managed by CISF (Central Industrial Security force) a Government sovereign.”
