Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann rescheduled his return journey from Frankfurt in a last-minute change for taking another flight to Delhi on Sunday.
He was on a trip to Germany from September 11 to 18 in order to attract investments and strategic tie-ups in various sectors. Now, he will be returning in the early hours of September 19. “The Punjab Chief Minister has delayed his departure as he was reportedly unwell,” said an official.
A State government source confirmed to The Hindu that Mr. Mann did not board the scheduled flight as per the fixed schedule. Mr. Mann along with the team of officials was dropped at the Frankfurt airport by cabs. However, after he was dropped the India Consulate reportedly again informed the cab staff to pick up the Chief Minister from the airport as he didn’t board the aeroplane, said the source.
