A goof-up by Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal's security coordination committee led the helicopter carrying him to the wrong destination.
Badal's chopper took off from Raja Sansi Airport in Amritsar for Gurdaspur to attend a function in connection with the World Cup Kabaddi match at 1430 hrs on Wednesday. However, the security committee gave wrong location of the helipad to the Air Traffic Controller
Gurdaspur Deputy Commissioner Karmjitit Singh Sra said it was due to the "major goof-up" by the security coordination committee that Badal had to travel up and down from Amritsar to Gurdaspur.
