The veteran hockey player vented his frustration in a sarcastic tweet, also using the hashtag loot.

"FIH allow me to play with a 41 inch hockey stick, but @IndiGo6E never allow me to carry anything over 38inch. What to do? Pay extra ₹1,500 for handling the goalkeeper baggage," the tweet read, which took no time go viral on the internet.

Taking note of the complaint, IndiGo instantly responded back to the tweet, regretting the inconvenience caused to the hockey stalwart. “Thank you for meeting with us.
