Recently,
a
CISF
(Central
Industrial
Security
Force)
officer
stopped
Salman
Khan
from
entering
the
terminal
at
the
Mumbai
airport
and
asked
him
to
get
clearance
first
from
the
security
check
point.
Soon,
the
video
of
CISF
stopping
Salman
from
entering
the
terminal
went
viral
on
the
internet.
Netizens
not
only
applauded
the
CISF
officer
for
doing
his
duty
diligently,
but
also
praised
his
attitude
for
not
giving
any
special
treatment
to
Salman
Khan
just
because
he's
a
celebrity.
Earlier,
many
reports
suggested
that
the
CISF
officer
who
stopped
Salman
from
entering
the
terminal
was
rewarded
for
doing
his
duty
diligently.
Now,
in
a
new
interview
with
a
leading
daily,
DIG
Anil
Pandey,
Chief
Public
Relations
Officer,
CISF,
said
that
CISF
ASI
Somnath
Mohanty
was
just
following
the
protocol
and
he
did
nothing
exceptional.
He
told
a
leading
daily,
"Someone
shot
a
video
of
Salman
Khan
at
the
airport
and
a
rumour
was
spread
that
the
CISF
personnel
who
stopped
him
was
taken
to
task,
hence
we
had
to
clarify
on
Twitter.
It
was
ASI
Somnath
Mohanty
who
was
on
duty,
and
as
per
security
protocol
at
the
airport,
he
stopped
Salman
Khan
and
asked
him
to
get
security
clearance.
Every
passenger
has
to
go
through
the
same
procedure."
He
further
clarified,
"The
ASI
on
duty
was
not
rewarded
for
stopping
Salman
Khan,
but
he
was
rewarded
in
internal
assessment
as
the
best
performer.
We
have
our
internal
reward
mechanism.
What
ASI
Mohanty
did
was
a
routine
check,
and
nothing
exceptional.
Not
just
in
Mumbai,
but
the
CISF
personnel
at
all
the
airports
across
the
country
follow
the
same
procedure
for
airport
check-ins
of
celebrities
as
for
any
other
passenger."
With
respect
to
work,
Salman
is
currently
shooting
for
Tiger
3
along
with
Katrina
Kaif.
