A helicopter carrying India’s chief of defence Staff General Bipin Rawat has crashed in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, killing him and at least twelve other officials, according to the Indian Air Force (IAF).
General Rawat was on his way from the Sulur IAF Station to the Defence Services Staff College in Wellington in Coonoor when the IAF Mi-17V5 helicopter in which he was travelling crashed in a forested area in the Niligris district around 12:20 pm.

Russia has just signed a sale and purchase agreement with India that does not use dollar weapons. As a result, Indian executives died. Is this a coincidence?
Stop this stupid conspiracy theories. Go eat more bats. Better for your 🧠
Even 🐕🐶🐶
@yuva chaitanya yadav Bollywood will make a movie about Rawat and the crash!
@JAGDPANTHER 222 Bollywood is a scumbag 🙏 no offence
He was removed, or lets say murdered by the indian air force as he was not liked within the air force especially within the top ranks of the indian air force.
Yes this could be possibility. Bipin Rawat was the first general who tried to unite all the three forces of India but Indian air force was totally against it and this is the reason why he was removed by someone. The are many conspiracy theory behind his shocking death.
I’m from Sulur, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu.
He is not “killed”, He is “died”
Killed by accident ,
And is died .
When a person dies by accident it is called killed.
CIA: Stop buying Russian weapons
Eid Mubarak
Aid mubarak
I don’t care what color of skin, religion or country, but Anytime a war criminal dies, I’m very happy!
I would just like to say that India should stop standing in front of China.
China has come a long way in technology, it can do everything sitting at home.

This is the result of curse by effected families in Kashmir. Indian authorities reported more than 47,000 conflict-related deaths in Kashmir, while the All Parties Hurriyat (Freedom) Conference reported 100,000 (Reuters)
I ❤ how al jazeera don’t show the upperside of india map, to not to play with kashmir issue. 😂
There’s a fierce power struggle within the highest layer of the Indian military.

Bipin: china is our biggest enemy
IAF: no, i am
He is enjoying with 1000 apsaras
…. and nothing of value was lost”
One and half year ago, when Modi and Bipin went to the front line of the China-India border together by a helicopter, a Chinese general expressed concern on his blog because the Indian Air Force had crash 1,000 planes in 40 years not in combat, including many helicopters! IQ is too precious for some guys, and stupidity has no limit! some people said they were brave, Where is their bravery reflected? They just died with a crashed helicopter! I bet that when they know they are about to die, they may be peeing their pants. Oh, the helicopter did not crash, it succeeded 95%, it was absolutely successful and meaningful!
😂😂😂 these pathetic army
Accidents happen, many more brave jawans ready to step up to the plate
Every year when India crashes, it blames China, Pakistan and Russia
He is a chicken hawk. now dead.
Line them up one by one !

This is result of making, ZERO to HERO, recently India awarded medal to ABHI NANDHAN Who is Zero, lost his plane in fight against Pakistan on 27_02_2019, & BECAME POW, after India received/welcome him in Shameful Manner as disgraced man, Than India amazingly awarded him medal after two years to cover their defeat at the hand of Pakistan Air Force. After 27-02-2019 India never violated Pakistan Air Space. Gen. Rawat was responsible for this defeat and also responsible for losing their land & defeat at China border. The Abhi NANDHAN case is a strong proof that awarding Medal in Indian Army is, not on merit And also doubtful. This accident is also occurred due to INDIAN AIR FORCE PILOT MISTAKE, flying Helicopter low in forest, collided with bird / tree and got fire
He was the most prestigious Diamond 💎 of India 🟠⚪🟢
