Gokhale took a flight at 9 pm from New Delhi to Jaipur on Monday. When he landed, the Gujarat Police was at the airport in Rajasthan waiting for him and picked him up. At 2 am on Tuesday, Gokhale called his mother and told her that the police were taking him to Ahmedabad and he would reach that city by noon, O’Brien claimed. “The police let him make that two-minute phone call and then confiscated his phone and all his belongings,” the TMC leader said on Twitter. Uttar Pradesh Shocker: Mother of Two Puts Herself at Stake While Playing Ludo, Loses to Landlord in Pratapgarh.
