Khandwa: Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav on Monday said the Congress did not praise Indian pilot Smit Machchhar for his exemplary bravery because the party feared losing the minority community's vote.
Machchhar has been hailed as a hero across the world after he successfully fought off his co-pilot, who wanted to take control and crash a flydubai flight operating from UAE to Israel with 174 passengers. The aircraft was later diverted to Tabuk in Saudi Arabia, where it landed safely.
