Scindia, after he discovered that his luggage was marked with an ‘X’ at the Mumbai airport.

The director took to Twitter and shared his concern with the minister, saying, “Dear @JM_Scindia ji, Please stop this pathetic system of marking bags at Mumbai airport with an ‘X’ made with chalk.”

Vivek Agnihotri tweeted that this was “very bad etiquette” and showed India as a “primitive and uncivilised country specially when PM @narendramodi is talking about making India a global leader”.

What The Kashmir Files helmer may not have known is that cross-marking luggage at airports is a worldwide practice because all bags are X-rayed by Customs authorities before they are released into the conveyor belts.

Usually, heavier-than-usual bags are singled out because the authorities may suspect that they have dutiable items that have not been declared by the persons to whom the bag belong.
