She pushed the passenger, claims X user

It's hard to understand what she's saying on the video, but she can be heard mumbling and almost screaming before security personnel escort her off the plane.

As she gets off the plane, security officers try to calm her down and can be heard asking her to get off. The woman mumbles something about where she sits, but most of what she says is incoherent in the video.

The user

The user also claimed that the in-flight drama caused the plane to be delayed for more than an hour. HT cannot independently verify these claims.

“Habit of creating conflict”

The video, which has been viewed nearly half a million times, prompted several users to question what happened on the plane that led to the woman being forcibly removed from the plane.

“She must have done something wrong for the crew to drag her like this,” one user said.

“I don't know why people get into the habit of provoking conflicts for no reason, be it on the street or in the air,” said another user.

A third user reported increasing behavioral problems on flights in India. “We lack patience everywhere. I wonder why there is not a single large company that teaches soft skills in our country. Maybe no one wants to learn to be disciplined,” they wrote.
