Senior IPS officer Arun Bothra has posted a photo on Twitter with a suitcase full of fresh green peas. Mr Bothra, who is posted as Transport Commissioner of Odisha, said the picture was taken at Jaipur airport, where security officials asked him to open his hand baggage for further inspection. Apparently the scanner signals aroused their suspicion.

Opening the suitcase showed that it was packed with fresh peas which the IPS officer had bought for Rs 40 per kilogram to take back home!
