Chidambaram angry over prices of coffee at airport
Senior Congress leader and former finance ministerm P Chidambara was on Sunday “horrified” to find that coffee and tea are expensive at airport.
“At Chennai Airport Coffee Day I asked for tea. Offered hot water and tea bag, price Rs 135. Horrified, I declined. Was I right or wrong?” he said.

In another tweet, he complained about coffee too. “Coffee Rs 180. I asked who buys it? Answer was ‘many’. Am I outdated?”

Twitterati, however, did not take these comments too kindly and had a field day taking potshots at the lawyer-cum-politician. “Sir, you probably asked the price first time and declined to have it, but we are paying since more then 9-10 years, same price,” said a twitter user.
