Former Indian President APJ Abdul Kalam was frisked by Continental Airlines security staff as he boarded a Newark bound flight from New Delhi Airport.

 
India’s Civil Aviation Minister has denounced the airline for a breach of protocol and ordered an investigation, although Kalam has not protested. The Indian government provides a list to airlines of senior officials who are exempt from the security.

You people are by nature trouble makers. Look at how you treat your women. You kill them if they don\'t bring dowry, you burn them if they become widow. You treat your own brothers (untouchables) worse than slaves.
Why shouldn\'t you be treated like you treat your brothers once in a while. If you don\'t like your treatment here, go back to your backward country and don\'t come to my beloved country.
