The incident took place on IndiGo flight no 6E 329. Sardarnagar police station arrested the passenger Rahul Grover (34), a Delhi-based businessman, after he was offloaded.
"The IndiGo flight going from Delhi to Goa was diverted here for emergency landing due to the behaviour of Grover. The crew member, who lodged a complaint with us, alleged that Grover misbehaved with her, passed lewd comments and used foul language," said inspector V R Patel.
