A Cheetah helicopter of the Indian Air Force (IAF) was forced to make an emergency landing on a highway in Sonepat district of Haryana on Friday after it developed a technical snag.
There was no injury to anyone or damage to any property, officials said.
"A Cheetah helicopter was proceeding from Hindan to Halwara for a routine Air Force task. Approximately 14NM (nautical mile) out of Hindan, the helicopter developed technical snag and carried out precautionary landing on Eastern Peripheral Expressway," the Defence Ministry said in a statement.
"The actions taken by the pilots were prompt and correct. No damage to any property has been reported. Recovery helicopter was launched immediately from Hindan," it added.
The helicopter was rectified and recovered back promptly and safely at Hindan, the ministry said.
According to reports, the helicopter landed on the Kundli-Ghaziabad-Palwal or the Eastern Peripheral Expressway, about 10-12 km from Sonipat.
A local police official said that Police Control Room vehicles and police personnel were rushed to the spot and stopped the vehicular traffic on the stretch of the road where the chopper had landed.
