A major helicopter incident in Uttarakhand has triggered an emergency response near Joshimath after a helicopter operated by Trans Bharat Aviation lost contact while flying from Badrinath to Dehradun's Sahastradhara heliport. According to UCADA CEO Prateek Jain, the helicopter departed Badrinath at 1:14 PM. Initial information suggests that six people, including the pilot and five others, were onboard. Following the incident, the Chamoli district administration, SDRF and an Army unit were mobilised for rescue preparations. As a precautionary measure, the entire Trans Bharat Aviation helicopter fleet has been grounded

On June 12, 2025, Air India Flight AI-171, a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner flying from Ahmedabad to London, crashed just seconds after takeoff, killing 260 people in one of the deadliest aviation disasters in recent Indian history. For months, the tragedy was believed to be the result of a catastrophic technical failure. Now, nearly eight months later, the investigation has taken a dramatic and deeply disturbing turn. Fresh investigative reporting suggests the final crash report may conclude that the disaster was not caused by a mechanical malfunction, but by deliberate human action inside the cockpit. The report identifies Captain Sumeet Sabharwal as pilot-in-command, with First Officer Clive Kunder as co-pilot. Investigators reportedly believe the fuel cutoff may have been manually initiated, though accountability remains unresolved and the official DGCA final report is still pending. WATCH
