The matter was also reported to the aviation safety regulator DGCA, he added.

They were seated on the emergency seats and a security briefing was on at that time. The co- passengers also took objection (to their behaviour),” the Go First spokesperson said. The matter was reported to the captain and they were off-loaded, he said, adding that they were handed over to security officials for further action.
