A senior Indian Army commander and two pilots survived injuries after a Cheetah light helicopter crashed in the high-altitude Ladakh sector on May 20, prompting the Army to order a formal investigation into the incident.
The aircraft was on a routine flight in the strategically sensitive region when it met with an accident. It was carrying three personnel, including Division Commander Major General Sachin Mehta and two pilots, all of whom sustained injuries after the helicopter went down.
