Difficult geographical location becomes a big challenge

The geographical structure of the crash site has emerged as the biggest obstacle in the rescue work. Neelip block of Chokihola is known for its difficult hills and dense forests. There is neither a permanent road nor proper visibility in the dark of night. The falling temperature at night and the threat of wild animals are also creating great difficulty for the rescue teams.

As soon as the debris of the plane is recovered. ‘Court of Inquiry’ will be ordered to find out the real cause of this crash. A team of experts will investigate in depth whether it was a technical fault or a sudden engine failure. At present the priority is only to find the pilot safe and recover the data recorder of the aircraft so that the truth can come out.

A big loss for the Air Force

This area of ​​Assam is very important from security point of view. Flying of advanced aircraft like Sukhoi from airbases like Jorhat and Tezpur is very important for monitoring the border areas. The crash of Sukhoi-30MKI is a major strategic loss for the Air Force. The administration has appealed to the local residents not to go towards the hilly area and if they see the pilot’s parachute or any part of the plane. So they should immediately cooperate by informing the nearest police post.
