The Congress has taken exception to Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari flying to Dehradun recently in an Uttarakhand government plane, saying it was against norms and a burden on the already debt-ridden state coffers.

"Being the Governor of Maharashtra it was the Maharashtra government's responsibility to send Koshyari in a state plane to Uttarakhand," Congress media in-charge for Garhwal Garima Dasauni said.
