Chopper carrying Rijiju makes emergency landing

New Delhi: A chopper carrying Union Minister Kiren Rijiju and a BJP MP on Tuesday made an emergency landing at Hindon airbase near here following engine trouble after being airborne for nearly 20 minutes.  “We are all safe,” Rijiju told PTI over phone.
The Minister, along with Lok Sabha member from Tehri-Garhwal Mala Rajya Laxmi Shah, had taken off for Tehri on an Mi-17V5 helicopter from capital’s Safdarjung airport.  There were eight people on-board. (PTI)
