The Times of India reported that Samdarshi Yadav, a 32-year-old resident of Pune, was stopped from boarding a flight to the Maldives after officials found he had destroyed some pages from his passport to hide his travel history from his wife.

I could ask why he didn't just throw it into a washing machine or loose it and just apply for a new one.

Tells you everything you need to know about Thailand's reputation as a 'high class' destination.

My thoughts exactly. Report it lost, get a new one from the Embassy or Consulate. Man created himself a truly avoidable pain in his rectum....

I believe India does not have an embassy or consulate in India where this man could have obtained a new passport.

a new one costs money.... knew a cheap American who'd try to steam off some visa stickers because he was running out of blank pages

Reckon he was ripped off ????

OK, here it comes, can't have a thread about an Indian tourist without it.

 

Then the wife says "and what has become of your gold chain?"

 

 

I guess losing a gold chain is not one of his trouble no more.

'High class' does not always translate into 'high intelligence '

You think too much????

so he went from trying to hide his naughty romps to Pattaya from his wife toooooooo - now the whole world knows lol

 

10 pages is a lot of trips, I wonder where he said he was during those trips 

 

was it their honeymoon 

 

and 

 

is he still married 

Why would he need to hide his exotic trips to ancient temples and shrines from his wife? Wouldn't she have understood his desire to see the hilltribes, temples, clean beaches and, well, temples?

And he says, it's in my bag, but I'm waiting for insurance claim.... 

LOL the things men do to try to be safe.  wife is a good indian wife and whne he tells her he is going to mumbai for business she assumes that he is.

 

Same good Indian wife though will have family and brothers adjust his jewels so that trips to anywhere would not bring happy ending. no matter how good the masseuse was or is.

"...or loose it..." [sic]

 

According to the link that is what happened, his lawyer said that the pages came out because they were loose.

 

"...why he didn't just throw it into a washing machine..."

They're Indian, what do you think the chances are of his wife not being the only one to do the laundry?!

I have a colleague in the UK who makes annual business trips to Australia. His wife forbids him from stopping over in Bangkok. Ask people in the street what the first things are that come to mind when Thailand is mentioned, and I'm sure that most would say ladyboys and prostitutes.

Yes.....He got married!

Could have tried the line he was testing LOS as a possible wedding location or honeymoon destination. The Thailand reputation is obviously far and wide.
