Chennai (Tamil Nadu) [India], June 11 (ANI): As the street lights on the road near the airport were not working when Union Minister Amit Shah was leaving the airport for his hotel in Guindy, a group of BJP cadres staged a protest, accusing the State government of deliberately turning off the lights.


Tamil Nadu BJP State Vice President Karu Nagarajan, while speaking to ANI said that the incident shows a "security lapse" that should be seriously investigated.
