Defence Chairman (CDS) General Bipin Rawat, who lost his life in the helicopter crash, was still alive after the crash. Let me tell you that after the accident, he had also given his name in the Hindi when Mi-17V5 were removed from the debris. Yes, a member of the rescue team informed about this. Tell all of you that another rider was also evacuated along with General Rawat. He was later identified as Group Captain Varun Singh. The group captain is the only person left alive in the accident.

According to reports, he is currently undergoing treatment. Senior fireman and rescuer Nc Murali, who rushed to the spot after the accident, said that we rescued two persons alive. One of them was CDS Rawat. Murali said, 'As soon as we pulled them out, they spoke softly to the defence personnel in Hindi and spoke their names. He died on the way to the hospital. At the same time, Murali said, 'They could not immediately identify the other person who was taken to the hospital and is currently undergoing treatment. "General Rawat said he suffered serious injuries to his lower body," Murali added. They were then wrapped in sheets and taken to an ambulance. '

Meanwhile, rescue teams had to face difficulties in rescue operations in the area. There was reportedly no way to take the fire tender to douse the fire. Regarding the accident, Murali said, "We had to fetch water from nearby rivers and houses to utensils. The operation was so difficult as we had to separate the spiked pieces of helicopter to rescue people or retrieve the bodies. Murali further said, 'A uprooted tree became a hindrance in the rescue operation. It had to be cut. All this delayed our rescue operations. At the same time, he said that we recovered 12 bodies. Two people were evacuated alive, both suffered severe burns. Later, iaf personnel joined the rescue operation halfway through. He took the team to the damaged parts of the helicopter.
