IndiGo's American co-founder Rakesh Gangwal has accused co-founder Rahul Bhatia and his firms of entering into "questionable" related party transactions with the airline. Gangwal said that "even a 'paan ki dukaan' would have handled these matters with more grace". He said Bhatia has "unusual rights" including the right to appoint three out of six directors, MD, CEO, President, and Chairman.
