“Singh has been issued a chargesheet for violation of conduct rule and for not complying with the company policy,” an Air India spokesperson said on Thursday.

Air India had constituted the panel to investigate a scuffle between co-pilot Aditya Chopra and flight purser Amit Khanna onboard a Sharjah-Lucknow-Delhi flight on October 3.

Singh, who alleged that the two pilots molested her in the cockpit, had lodged a police complaint against them.

“She has also been accused of insubordination and disobeying seniors,” said an airline official.
