India: Greenpeace activist stopped from traveling to UK due to NGO's involvement in anti-national activities, says govt. officials
Days after Greenpeace activist Priya Pillai was offloaded from a flight to London at the IGI airport in Delhi, it has emerged that the Intelligence Bureau (IB) used the “etc” category in an internal order of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) to issue the lookout circular that stopped her from flying out. This was done as there was no criminal case against Pillai, officials said. The NGO has been involved in anti-national activities and there was a suspicion her travel was not in national interest.” The official added that Pillai’s air ticket was funded by Greenpeace UK, which brought her travel under the scanner.
