Flooded River Rescue: A Man Left Stranded for 12 Hours Is Successfully Rescued by the Indian Air Force in Chhattisgarh
In a heart-stopping operation, the Indian Air Force (IAF) successfully rescued a man who was trapped in a flooded section of the Sabari River in Sukma district, Bastar, Chhattisgarh, on Monday.
The incident occurred near Nadigufa Talavarti village, where the man was swept away and got trapped in a bush. The local administration and police launched a rescue operation immediately, but the high current water proved challenging. A motorboat was deployed, but it was unable to navigate the fast-flowing waters.
The Indian Air Force, alerted to the situation, swiftly sprang into action. The IAF base at Jagdalpur, Bastar's headquarters, mobilised its resources, with the Garud commandos using an IAF Mi-17 V-5 helicopter for the operation. A drone was also deployed to locate the stranded man in the river.
The Garud commandos, displaying remarkable skill and bravery, managed to place a life jacket on the man and safely pull him out of the river. The rescue operation was carried out with precision and efficiency, a testament to the IAF's readiness and capability.
The rescue mission was described as "dare-devil" in the article shared by the Central Air Command (CAC), IAF, with a caption. The man, whose name is not disclosed in the available search results, was reported to have been trapped for 12 hours before the successful rescue.
No further details about the man's identity or condition were provided in the article. However, this daring rescue operation underscores the Indian Air Force's commitment to serving and protecting the citizens of India.
The Indian Air Force continues to demonstrate its unwavering dedication to ensuring the safety and wellbeing of the people of India, even in the most challenging circumstances. This latest rescue operation in Jagdalpur, Bastar's headquarters, is a shining example of the IAF's unparalleled expertise and courage.
